Book fans rejoice, movie critics pass

Readers of the books, you will not be disappointed. The movie follows the book’s story line very closely, with acceptable deviations. Up side: the visuals were spectacular (all the visuals!) The acting was excellent. The dialog was true to book and witty. Best Surprise: Jasper – I could not help but laugh every time his tormented face was on screen.
On the down side: The pace during the first half was slower than I would have liked. There were a few points I had to close my eyes to stop from getting dizzy due to the spinning camera angles. The piano lullaby was a poor choice. Biggest Disappointment: the wardrobe! I hope for the next book they have a bigger budget, more talented stylists or kinder vendors.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
