Was This Going Somewhere?
1 October 2013
I read a lot of teen books but not The Moth Diaries, going in to the movie I had no idea where it was heading. Admittedly I was expecting a little more Single White Female and was surprised when the supernatural elements started appearing.

I'm not sure Lily Cole was a good fit for this role. I love her and she was great St Trinian's but in this she came across as kind of awkward, mainly because she was head taller than everyone else. I could also swear everyone called her Vanessa throughout the movie...

I left the movie feeling that there weren't any supernatural elements at all and that Rebecca had just finally cracked and needed mental help. That's just my personal opinion and I think the movie wanted me to believe Rebecca's story, despite the numerous weird hallucinations. And what was with that library scene near the end? Overall, a fairly decent movie to watch if you're bored but I didn't feel like it went anywhere.
