[QUOTE="Elf Witch, post: 3234679, member: 9037"] I agree with a lot of what you said here. I saw the movie with three friends and the two who had not read the book enjoyed it. They thought it was choppy and should have been longer. My friend who read the book felt they left to much out but felt that she had an enjoyable mivie experience. I have not read the book but I enjoyed the movie. I don't think it was great film I could see where it could have had better editing and it needed to be longer. But I don't think it was a bad film either. I am rather easy going about movies if they keep my interest and entertain me then I don't feel as if I wasted my money or time. As for cliches they don't bother me at all. All genre's have cliches if they didn't we would not have movies like Scary Movie to make fun of them. :D I hear people on this board complaining about this a lot in their books and movies and I just don't get it. Hald the movies abd books I have seen knocked are books and movies that I have enjoyed. So I sometimes wonder if some of you may be a little jaded in your outlook. Or maybe I am just not as discerning. Don't get me wrong I can pick apart a book or movie and say how I think it could have been better, and I often do but that does not stop me from still enjoying the movie or book. I wanted to get the DVD of this movie when it comes out because there were things about the movie I really enjoyed. There were a lot of kids in the movie I went to and they seemed to love the movies I overheard some talking about how much they liked it. [/QUOTE]
