"When the class war starts, it will start here in Neptune"??? Really? I see Veronica Mars is still the same liberal moronic drivel that it always was. Rich/white men are basically scumbags and cops are corrupt, racist idiots. You know how the rest goes. Get a job Kirsten Bell, a real one that you actually have talent for. That goes for the rest of the cast as well.

First of all, I haven't watched Veronica Mars TV show - ever. That's why it might be a huge mistake to watch the movie, right? I didn't know any of the characters, I didn't what had happened before... Luckily for all the viewers like me, there was a quick sum up in the beginning - what was the TV show about, the basics. It was helpful, and it made me feel less ignorant.I'll shortly comment on the techniques: cinematography was decent, but not excellent. Songs used were good, but otherwise the soundtrack was quite boring. I don't even remember what kind of music there was - and tells a lot.The murder seemed interesting, but not really a movie material. It felt too simple and almost... normal. It felt like it could've been just an episode of the show, which is of course understandable. At points I was actually waiting for a commercial break. It got more complicated luckily, but it still felt like something was missing. I was hoping for something darker. I didn't get much out of this movie. It felt bland, and not what I'd want from a murder mystery. It felt mild. I have a feeling you need to be a fan to appreciate this.

I must confess that I've seen only a few episodes of "Veronica Mars," the cult series that ran on cable TV from 2004 to 2007. I make that declaration right up front merely to emphasize that I come to the movie version largely unencumbered by any pre-conceived notions of what it ought to be.The movie picks up nine years after the close of the series. Veronica Mars, the famous teen private eye who worked out of her dad's PI office through most of high school, has long ago put away her amateur sleuthing in favor of law school, with the hope of securing a promising job with a prestigious law firm in New York City. However, when her ex- boyfriend (Jason Dohring) is charged with killing his celebrity girlfriend, Veronica returns to her hometown of Neptune, California, to help clear his name and find the actual culprit.For fans of the show, the movie version of "Veronica Mars" is clearly the equivalent of old home week, giving devotees a chance to catch up with old friends, seeing how much they've changed and finding out what they've all been up to since last they checked in on them. Indeed, it is nearly impossible to overstate the emotional pull and feeling of connection that often come with serialized television shows. For non- fans, however, the movie can't possibly generate nearly as much interest or affection, and the call-backs and in-jokes are lost on that particular segment of the audience. Moreover, the murder mystery plot that director Rob Thomas and his co- writer Diane Ruggiero have come up with is serviceable at best and boring at worst. Kristen Bell is captivating and winning as the clever and feisty Veronica, and she is aided by a bevy of subsidiary performers who have clearly grown quite comfortable in the roles they're playing. However, fun as it obviously was for the actors to re-unite on this project, that sense of fun doesn't always translate to the screen. Indeed, there's a decided lack of urgency and passion in the production, one that makes us wonder if it might not have been better to have simply let "Veronica Mars" rest in peace.

Tens of thousands of movies get made every year, most all of them are not worth the effort. Add this one to the list. The original series was way drawn out and rightfully ended sooner than expected.. and this film, well was totally unnecessary. It's not bad, just adds nothing and is uninteresting.. milking what had been already over-milked. The series was canceled after just three seasons, Thomas then wrote the film script continuing the storyline, which Warner Bros. opted not to fund. Bell and Thomas then launch a fund-raising campaign to produce the film through Kickstarter and accumulated almost $6 million. Released March, 2014.. to date it's grossed only $3.5 million worldwide.
