Good Film - Bad Book Conversion

Rating: 7/10 (4 June 2004)

If I had not read the book before hand I would most certainly not have this lingering feeling that the movie is missing something.
On it's own it is a chilling tale and one that is most enjoying to watch. However it would seem that the production staff have not given the actual book much notice.
Sure they adhere to the storyline, however they miss out a lot of the most enjoyable aspects of the book.
I was satisfied however as the aspects they did include made for a solid movie that was a great improvement on the first two.
