Jan 13, 2016Absolutely disappointing!!. They made it seem like a crappy crime show, all the characters profiles and scenes you love are all completely different. There is a lot of jumping back and forth in the first episode and if they were trying to follow the books they COMPLETELY FAILED!!

Jan 12, 2016Promising, fresh and brilliant in a few specific moments. A very good beginning for Freeform, we're gonna see drama, jokes, love and very interesting things.

The pilot is so bloated, attempting as it does to relay all the rules of its fictional universe through nauseatingly clunky dialogue and disorienting time- and location-jumps (including some to freaking Chernobyl, where the series’ big bad has randomly chosen to camp out), that it’s difficult to make sense of anything going on, but here are the basics.

McNamara does her best, but Clary has been written as all breeze and no storm, which makes her central relationship with Jace more an algorithm of attractiveness than chemistry. Decter appears far more interested in Revelations than revelation, and in his rush to get to the "good stuff" he has forgotten that this kind of stuff is good only when it takes a while to get there.

Not even the directorial efforts of McG can salvage what’s happening here. There are some mild action sequences, but they don’t do much to elevate the proceedings.
