Great Movie

Rating: 9/10 (19 May 2006)

Overall I give it one and a half stars out of two, it would have had the full stars if the cast was more unknown. Nothing against Tom Hanks but i think they should have used an actor less known to the audience he was the only person i recognized and it wasn't his type of movie.But everything else was absolutely amazing, it pretty much kept up to the book right to the point it changed in a couple spots and it added some humor in spots but overall it was amazing. I dunno what version of this movie the critics at the Cannes Film Festival saw but it must have been totally different because their critiques were off. But if i do say so myself this is a movie you should definitely go see it would help if you read the book before you see the movie but its not 100% necessary!!
