As a movie, it was good...

Rating: 8/10 (21 October 2010)

I don't think that this review is really spoiling anything, but just in case I'm putting a spoiler warning...
I know that this movie has been out for awhile and if there is anyone out there who hasn't seen it, I haven't met them. I just finished reading the book and decided to pull the movie out of my "closet" (a space that I put all of the movies that I haven't seen in a milenia) and watch it again. Now, if you've read the book and you're looking for a movie to compare vision to imagination then this movie will not help you. There are key characters missing, some key characters that are there do not match the book description at all and the plot is almost completely different. But this isn't a book review, it's a movie review, and as an independent movie, having nothing to do with the Michael Crichton masterpiece, it is still good. Just don't watch it for comparison because there really isn't anything to compare.
