people who are trying to be critics... STOP!

Rating: Null/10 (9 December 2004)

i can't believe that a number of people here have written how much they disliked the movie. i wouldn't be commenting here if it were not because of those who kept saying that the book was better than the movie.
PEOPLE, DON'T BE BOOK FASCIST!
although the original concept of the film came from kesey's book, let us not forget that print and cinema are distinct and different from each other. each medium has its own specificity. if you were media practitioners you would have known this and would not have been ranting and commenting the way you did.
what you read in a book cannot be exactly the same as what you get from the film, and vice versa. very much like culture and anything else, assess the merits and demerits of a certain film by its inherent characteristics, not by what you see or don't see from another object like a book.
so if you're out to bash the movie just because you think that the book was better, why don't you just shut up and think about what i just said.
