Great FUN film

Rating: 9/10 (12 February 2000)

This film is a great adaptation of the novel. It genuinely captures the naturalistic themes expressed by Garland. It also incredibly captures the feel of the generation it appeals to, the late-teens/early-twenties crowd. And let's face it, the reason we go to the movies is to have FUN. Isn't that what ENTERTAINMENT is all about? Don't expect life-changing revelations when you go to the movies. Read a book.
This film is definitely worth your time. The setting, cinematography, and action is amazing! The soundtrack is great too.
