Review of Of Mice and Men (1992) by Dylan V — 14 Aug 2009
I had to read Of Mice and Men in high school and I liked the book so I figured I would watch the movie one day. Very few movies even come close to being as good as the book, but Of Mice and Men is an exception. Gary Sinise and John Malkovich play great roles as Lenny and George in the movie as do the ones that play Slim, Candy, and Curley.
Gary Sinise couldn't have done a much better job directing the movie to be just like the book. Of Mice and Men is one of the best novel to movie translations ever. If you liked the book and even if you haven't ever read it, this is one movie worth getting anytime. NOTE: That was my Amazon review from the year 2000. You know how you always dread having to read books for a class in high school? Well, the book was short, but at the end I was wishing it'd been longer...same for this movie! Both are great - excellent adaptation.
