If you read the book stay away from the movie!

Rating: 1/10 (29 March 2018)

Did Steven Spielberg even read this book! So much of the story was altered from the book that it made watching this movie very painful and frustrating. It seems that the movie was made for a different generation rather than the audience that fell in love with the book. Take a note from Peter Jackson when making a movie from a book. I understand that parts will be altered and some parts left out. Making a movie from a book is challenging I am sure. Just don't rewrite it! Even Ridley Scott did better with the Martian. He missed the mark on the humor in the Martian but at least he told the story as the author had written.
