Please don't tell my friend Mary, but I went to see it last night. See, I'd promised her I wouldn't go, because it was going to be a girl's night thing, and we'd all go, and well ... let's just say that there was a gentleman caller involved, and that trumps promise to a girlfriend. Like major.
So, anway ... here's the big surprise.
I liked it.
I thought that the movie was a lot better than the book. A lot of the foolishness that annoyed me disappeared because the demands of movie making required that the plot be tightened up and some time elements compressed.
It's entertaining, but the special effects inserts (you'll know what I mean if you see it) were just a little to "brilliant mind" for me, and basically unnecessary.
