'The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones' script full of clichés

With the final screen instalments of ‘Harry Potter’ and the ‘Twilight’ film series done and dusted, ‘The Mortal Instruments’ film franchise comes at the perfect time for fantasy film fans.
Like the two famous film series before it, ‘The Mortal Instruments’ is about an ordinary teenager who discovers they’re not so ordinary after all. In this case, it’s 15-year-old New Yorker Clary (Lily Collins) who discovers that she is from a family of Shadowhunters, who are half-angel warriors locked in a battle to protect the world from demons.
