Title: Too much of a bad thing
Product review: There's no danger of this series ever becoming classic. I read the books first, which weren't easy to track down (I had to use Interlibrary Loans to find and get them). The books were atrocious to say the least. It was not difficult to reason why they were out of print and almost impossible to find. Why Emma Thompson would pick them to make into films is unfathomable. Although, admittedly, she did make the first movie slightly more palatable than the books she almost based it on.Barely watchable, it's not a keeper and I've no desire to seek out the sequel or the movie that's supposed to follow it.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
