An awesome experience. I love to read, so when I found this book had been turned into a movie, I was truly dreading it. The book was good, but very dry & at points quite boring; a true struggle, but worth the effort in the end. I was spellbound from the first moment the movie started. The visuals, the scenery, the action, all this wove so well with the intent of the book. It follows the book rather loosely. I'm rarely wowed by movies that I've read as books. I can critique them to death. THIS ONE BLEW ME AWAY. It was so beyond the book, I couldn't quit thinking of it. I had to buy a fresh copy of the book to revisit it. A must see!!!
