Title: Don't judge the book based on this horrible movie!
Review: My husband said it all with these words: "If we had bought this movie, I'd throw it in the trash right now." We are fans of the book. This movie slaughters it.It's like the writers/producer/director took all of the elements of the book, dropped them in a hat, and randomly pulled them out to make the movie. At the end of the movie, not all of the pieces are there, and they're completely out of order. This is one of the most disappointing movies I have ever seen. The worst part is it is left open at the end for a sequel--that would be a travesty.One review suggested that they scrap this movie and start over. That's the only way to do it. Some may say that the book is too complex to translate into a movie, but it can be done--look at Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings. I say that if you can't do the book justice, just leave it alone.
Is the review positive or negative?
