La Cité des Ténèbres: La Coupe Mortelle,

The
world is inhabited by demons and Shadowhunters – those who hunt them down.
Clary Fray is one such saviour, but it takes the disappearance of her mother to
find out just how powerful she is. Like mother- like daughter, for her mother
was a leader in the group of Shadowhunters.
The Downworld is filled with vampires, werewolves and other deadly
creatures, but in this film werewolves are rescuers. They begin to infiltrate
the sacred training ground of Shadowhunters, an institute where few now live.
Most are dead – hence “the city of bones”. There is so much deception and
questing going on in the story, for everyone wants to find this magic cup whose
powers are attributed to angels. Carey is the one who finds it but not without
the help of Jace, a beautiful Shadowhunter. A highly evil man named Valentine
claims both of them of are his children and he desperately wants the cup, and
to get it he would kills his supposed children. The move is exciting and full
of special effects that work richly into the plot. The book, a best-seller
might reveal more than the movie does, but the latter is certainly satisfying
to watch.
