I feel that the ipakita is better because there is an actual plot, things are clear, the cast is better, Isabelle's wardrobe is better, Jace is hotter, and the cast doesn't have British accents. Not that they're not nice, but for a story set in America? Not so much. In the movie, Jace looks like a guy who wants to mug you. The ipakita is better because I pag-ibig suspense and it keeps me excited. Also, the movie didn't focus on Malec as much as it should have. The ratings for the ipakita are better than the ratings for the movie.
This is one of the best book series there is. Although recently Hollywood came out with a advertisement for this book. In my own opinion, I do not think that it should become a movie because in the past film makers have turned great books into pelikula and in doing so have completely destroyed imaginations for the characters. Take Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. The book was FANTASTIC! Yet the movie was awful. Everyone had a bad comment or scene that they did not like. I'm just saying, that maybe people should reconsider this.
