while not entirely accurate, an excellent job of turning a book into a movie

Rating: 10/10 (23 December 2001)

what can i say but incredible? beautifully done, absolutely wonderful to see a piece of work prepared so well. while not entirely true to the text of the novel, it was true to the spirit of the novel. the book was basically transformed into a screenplay - what had to be discarded was, and what was kept was great. it was a little disappointing to see some things left out, and a few things were just glazed over (the weak point of the film), but it was fantastic nonetheless. DEFINITELY worth it.
