Really not worth it

Rating: 2/10 (13 December 2014)

As someone who truly loved the books, this was seriously disappointing. I understand that films often go away from their book plots, but I think that the direction the film went was ridiculous in comparison to the books. There were times I was thinking...what's going on? This makes no sense whatsoever! Anyways, just don't be surprised to be disappointed if you love the book!
Regarding the film itself, it was really slow getting. I felt a lot of the acting was forced. My husband, who has no background in the story, was confused sometimes (yes the story has some mystery to it, but there are issues with the film plot). It seemed like a rip off of many other movies around, but the all around big picture is somewhat original and interesting.
If you are really interested in this movie, I would recommend renting it. It's not worth the money to buy it or see it in a theater. But that is just my opinion.
