OK movie

Rating: 4/10 (8 May 2010)

The holiday is a good movie, great cast, but gives no credit to the fact that it completely follows the entire idea of the fantastic novel Tara Road by Maeve Binchy. Both involve two women with struggling relationships escaping their lives in other countries in each others homes. the story lines are extremely similar, including their relationship problems, how they went about switching homes, and their changes to themselves and their lives in the time of their visit to another country. Although a great idea, should give credit to the author who wrote the novel in 1999.And the book is much better anyway! would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoyed this movie.
