Vampire Academy Movie Review *Spoiler Free*

Mar 6, 2014

So I just came home from the movies not that long ago and I was going to tweet my reactions but I thought why not make a post about it.

Well after waiting 6 years for Vampire Academy, today seemed to drag on but then I was finally sitting in my seat at the movies. I just could not contain my excitement haha.

So here we go…

The Cast! I loved the cast they were just perfect. I cannot explain. I was always very open minded on who played who, I didn’t really have someone in mind. So I pretty alright with whom was chosen, but man they were just so good.

Zoey is such a good Rose, her sarcasm, her wit, her looks. I cannot explain it.

Lucy as Lissa, she is just a cutie, even though they made her a little different from the book in the sense of her attitude I still liked her.

Danila OH MY GOSH, his smile, his accent just oh my gosh. I am so glad that they cast someone who is Russian!

Dominic, man he is Christian, that is all I have to say.

All the other side characters I really enjoyed as well, Sarah as Natalie, Cameron as Mason who I really wanted to see more off, but then again he wasn’t in the first book that much.

I think it was an okay book to movie adaptation it wasn’t the best but I was not expecting that. I loved hearing lines from the book, as well as scenes.  I really wanted more of some scenes, hope this is not a spoiler but the start of the movie where we have the car crash scene just wish it was a little more.

The setting, omg the school looked like how I imagined it, it was really good.

The Chemistry between Rose and Dimitri was just so damn cute. It’s bad we squeal. Christian and Lissa, damn my heart, they are just so perfect. Oh and Mason. Rose and Christians friendship. I loved it!

The last fighting scenes were epic, it was so intense and when Victor held Lissa captive, just how I imagined it. The psi-hounds man they looked creepy.

I really liked the visual effects in the sense of the fire, water, air …. elements they were pretty cool.

The only thing that I really had a problem with is the pace, I just think it went way to fast, it was like one scene then bam! Another scene. I really think they need to slow it down maybe even make it a little longer.

I also like that Rose’s protection for Lissa really showed through. Their friendship, the bond, which by the way I loved they way they did it.

I got so many feels the film. I wanted to just jump out of chair screaming and squealing so many times, it was pretty funny. Those scenes like in the book that I fangirled, *cough* *cough* ‘Roza’ ‘Lust Charm’ and so on haha.

Overall I really enjoyed it apart from the little things here and there and really hope that they make Frostbite because I cannot wait to see how they can fix the little things here and there. And gosh Frostbite is pretty action packed.

I Give Vampire Academy the Movie  4 Starts out of 5!

I had such a great time reading this book. I didn’ I had such a great time reading this book. I didn’t know what to expect, but at the same time it was exactly what I wanted.

Driven is an entertaining, suspenseful new adult romance debut that has a second chance romance, is brothers best friend and has fast cars. 

It’s one of those books that is perfect for those looking for something that they won’t want to put down, leave them second guessing and wanting more. 

It’s full of second changes, finding yourself and falling for the one person that is forbidden. 

This is all such a great debut novel that makes me want to read more from Emma J Warrender.
