Good book made into bad movie

Rating: 4/10 (8 April 2014)

I know it is a successful book. Lots of books are made into movies and TV shows, many of them had pretty bad reviews, so I prepared myself before watching this movie. However,I still got surprised. 7.6 is way too high for this movie. The Hunger Games is only 7.3 and I believe most people who watched both films would not say that this movie is better. However,it's understandable that this movie is over-rated because many raters are simply fans of the book and they think such a good book can never be made into a bad movie. Well, never underestimate the power of movie makers. Host is one of the recent examples(good book, bad film). I have not read the book and this movie certainly killed my will to do so. Too many good books are made into terrible movies, the Film makers have to try harder to present books on the big screen. Not like this, Not like this
