I'm a big fan of the book, now I'm a fan of the movie too

Rating: 9/10 (6 April 2018)

An excellent movie in its own right! I'm glad that I ignored all those 1 star reviews and went to watch it anyway. People who simply want a word-to-word copy of the book, must go and learn about what makes a good movie. Do you really think the audience should just watch Parzival playing video games?
Was it a perfect movie? No, it could be better. I'm taking away a star. It does have most things I wanted, like good visual effect, like friendship and love, like the epic battle. Without any spoiler, I must say that some of the changes from the book are actually better ideas, better than the original plot. Spielberg and Cline do know better than ordinary audiences.
I highly recommend any fan of the book to watch the movie, with an open mind. And make sure you watch the IMAX 3D verion. I can't eait to see a director cut version of the movie. Or even better, a 'writer' c nout version.
