Movie even better than book

Rating: 9/10 (27 January 2000)

The book was good, but not great. The movie was great. Never before have I seen a movie so closely follow the book's storyline. Every scene from the book is included in here, and the director takes very little artistic additions. For those people who couldn't stand the movie, what were you thinking? A children's story with violent content? If you are referring to the mouse, then you obviously haven't read the book. People who read the book will love the movie, mainly because it is almost identical, but the movie is even better in the book because it is filled with wit and humor to make the three hours seem like nothing. This isn't a normal Stephen King type story, so maybe that's why there have been a few complaints.
