Title: Not a good movie
Review: I had high expectations after reading the book. Far too many important concepts and ideas were left out of the movie which made for a lack of empathy for certain characters. The flat out lack of characterization destroyed the quality of viewing for the movie.After 10 minutes i had already realized i would be dissapointed and tried to watch the film without relating it to the book. It was far to obvious though that there was major editing done that cut out sections of storyline. There were times i thought "hey, how did the characters get to this point from nowhere?" and there were scenes in the movie that merely wasted time. If they got rid of some of the pointless special effects and put in the simple important concepts then this could have been fantastic.The acting was just plain horrid though. I consider myself lucky i did not pay the outrageous prices of a theatre to view the movie with friends.
Is the review positive or negative?
