This movie sucks

Rating: 3/10 (25 May 2006)

I just say the movie yesterday, I liked the book and read it two times (some time ago and just a month ago). It's not my favorite book and I don't think I'll read it again, however I expected justice to be made for the story. However I can tell you that besides changing a good part of the book in order to "adapt" it there are several loopholes in the story portrayed on screen that make it seem ludicrous and at times just plain stupid. I'm not going to tell you much but just the fact that J.S is not Sophie's grandfather really spoils the story. A great number of details is exactly what makes the book interesting and that is exactly what is missing in this film! It seems Ron Howard and co. tought we just wouldn't care for the details and decided to let them out of the story
