There are times when the movie doesn't match up to the book as well, but there were a few parts that almost improved on the book. It's a good, not to mentioned underrated movie. If you liked the book, I'm sure you'll like the movie as well.

Book is bad as well! More looks like a comic!!

This is a typical board on IMDB. People are always crying foul when a "remake" isn't up to standards, or a movie strays from the "story" in the book.

Every movie tells its own story. This is a movie based on a book, not the movie version of a book. This movie is not supposed to convey the same messages or initiate the same conversations as the book. This movie is an adaptation from the general outline of a story presented in a book. Nothing more, nothing less.
