Title: What a hatchet job
Review: SOme reviewers stated they couldnt understand why this movie wasnt released in the theaters. After watching the movie...I can see why. Billy and his "folks" are portrayed WAY too sappy sweet, the acting is just horrid, and the musical score gives the whole picture an "aint we all just so silly" feel. This was my favorite book when i was young, and never have I seen a worse book to screen adaptation. I cant see how they did it, but the director actually caused me NOT to feel a thing when the dogs died at the end. Wow!! The book left me in tears....but the movie made me just want it to be over so i could watch something else. And Dave Matthews...please please please....dont quit your day job.
