Failed as a story (and yes, mangled the book)

Rating: 1/10 (20 April 2018)

The characters were shallow, unlikeable and frequently acted against their natures - as developed in immediately prior scenes. Incredibly poor pace and plotting. Acting not terrible. Visuals quite good.
And though I never expected it, it had no clear message. Rather than capturing the humanity, loneliness, and search for meaning in a not-so-future world (like the book did), the movie captured... nothing.
I learnt nothing, cared about the characters very little, and would recommend it not at all.
