It's not the book, but it's great none the less

Rating: 9/10 (4 April 2018)

Only read about half of the book, it was great for 80's nostalgia, but couldn't finish. I was excited to see the movie since the premise was interesting and the trailer had me interested.
The book to movie may not satisfy those who loved the book, but that aside, it was a great movie. Lots of action, humor and the 80's. If you are to compare to the book, then yeah, it's missing things. That doesn't take away from the movie though
This kind of reminded me of Willy Wonka. Especially the end. The main character and his depressing Home life, wanting better things. What better way then to pursue the possibility of owning a trillion dollar business ?
Bottom line.....Great visuals, likeable characters, thrills, laughs and a great film on the big screen.
