Negative Positive
Title: Very disappointing, compared to the books
Review: Sorry, I can't agree with most of the sunny reviews, having the read the books ahead of time. I love Mankell's writing for the atmosphere and character development, and distilling the books to an hour of video each simply leads to disappointment - it's like watching a full-length movie on fast-forward. If you liked the books, skip these.
