I finally watched this last night and had low expectations because I had read the reviews already but since I had read the book and loved it I thought I would give it a try. It wasn't as bad as what I expected but it wasn't nearly as good as I had hoped.

Like the book it starts off a bit slow at the beginning and the action picks up but unlike the book it never really takes off or gets exciting. I didn't really feel a connection to any of the characters like I had in the book.

If you are a fan the book and don't watch the movie with high expectations it will keep you entertained or at least occupied for a couple of hours. I would rent it from Redbox as opposed to buying it.
