Title: "DUMBING DOWN" OF JOHN IRVING'S ORIGINAL TEXT
Review: This movie is basically a "dumbing-down" of John Irving's book. The story line was simplified so much, that for me, all meaning was lost. The book is wonderfully engaging and complex while the movie is a one-dimensional interpretation of the original text. I find this "pirating" of an author's work to be infuriating. Making a movie is not just about representing a story, this movie would have been better if it had captured some of John Irving's magic and irony and focused less on making the story fit neatly into a two hour package.
