Great Book, Good Movie
19 November 2008
There are a lot of really wonderful and talented actors in this film and they all do a good job but over all this movie pales in comparison to the book it is based on. The book is a great and edgy and dark story with great characters and a very interesting and engaging story that is hard to put down. So it's not too much of a surprise that like usual the movie can't compete with the book, I kind of wish I saw the movie first because I bet then I really would have liked the movie more. The book is always better than the movie (well almost anyway) and when you have to take that book and turn it into one and a half hours or two hours or even more than that it is still hard to do. It just couldn't fit on the screen. Good movie with great performances but it doesn't compare to the book.
