I did not like this movie. It is completely inacurate in its representaion of the book. It also comes off hokey due to the background music. This movie seems to take a very serious and disturbing book and make it comedic. I found the movie to be highly flawed and i don't think i'd have liked it better without reading the book. There is no way I'd have even followed if i had not read the book. People who have read the book are likely to feel as i do... that the movie does it no justice at all.
