“Saphirbleu” is the
title of the movie adaptation from the book Sapphire Blue, the second book in
the Precious Stone trilogy.
The movie was released in 2014, and even though it hasn’t been yet translated
to English it is available in German with English subtitles. The last one in
the trilogy is supposed to be released in 2016.
Gwendolyn and Gideon have been getting close, really close. Gwendolyn
thinks she can trust him and he thought the same until he saw her in the past
hugging Paul, Gwendolyn’s cousin boyfriend who stole the other chronograph.
This allows Charlotte to get closer to Gideon making things ever harder for
Gwendolyn.
On the other hand, Gwendolyn has been meeting with her grandfather in
the past and together they are trying to discover where the other chronograph
is in the present and , in addition to that, why Lucy and Paul steal it.
The movie was
actually an entertaining and fun movie, which I enjoyed a lot. It really
transmitted the mysterious feeling of the books, being even funnier than the
previous one. I think the strongest point, as I said with the previous one, the
setting as well as the costumes, especially the ones used during the soirée.
However, if we talk
about the book to movie adaptation, there were more differences than there were
in the first movie between the book and the movie. First of all, do not watch
the movie if you haven’t read the last book since one of the mysteries revealed
in Emerald Green is revealed in this movie. Also, in the books the relationship
between Gwendolyn and Gideon is not as clear as they pictured it in the movie,
making more dramatic the moment when Gideon is in the past. As in the book I
couldn’t understand the need of Xemerius, I don’t find the appearance of this
character important at all. Last thing I could not stand in this movie were
Gwendolyn’s eyes, the actress wears contacts during the whole movie, and they
make her eyes look unnatural. I do not know if the actress was wearing contacts
on the first movie but if she was they were more natural than the ones wore in
this one.
Therefore, the movie
is worth watching, if you have already read the last book in the series. It is
interesting, and really entertaining.
