I've heard many different opinions about this movie like, "it was cheesy" or "it was amazing!" And after seeing it, i definately do not agree with it being cheesy what soever. It was very well played out, with the characters, and the way it fit the book pretty well. Of course they had to cut a few scenes, but what do you expect? They cant fit a 500 page book into a 2 hour movie. But really, all in all, i was very very impressed.
