This was an example of the movie not doing the book justice. I really liked the book. It was a great story and one that just cannot be adequately retold in a movie setting. I was really disappointed. And I don't think that people who never read the book would really grasp the love story that was actually told. There were some pretty big differences between the book and the movie.

That's the thing with reading the books and watching the movies. If you read the book first, you're disappointed because it's nothin in comparison (especially because you've already used your imagination to set the scene) and if you watch the movie first then read the book, all you keep in your mind is what the movie portrayed. It's always a toss up. Hate when that happens.
Do you have the book? If so you'll have to let me borrow it.... along with #14 from Janet Evonovich :)
hmmmm i'm glad that you wrote this, i was on the fence about paying the 5 bucks to rent it from blockbuster but i think i'll just wait until it rotates into t.v. world. :) and now i want to read the book lol. any good movies you've seen lately worth renting?
HORRIBLE movie. The book was so much better!
