Title: Movie Misses the Target like a Scud
Review: Don't let the movie dissuade you from reading this book.There is not one "hoorah" in the book, like that one that's been re-run all over our television screens - not to mention any character that remotely resembles Jamie Foxx' character. There are several more gross adaptations from the written version of the story. I perceive the film as just another Hollywood insult to the American intellect. I suggest that you read the book if you like the previews.Swofford said it best in an interview: "The movie only captures the psychological perspective and some entertainment from the book." In other words, the book has more to offer.
