Maybe it was just me, but I had really high expectations for this movie because the book was so good. I'll be honest, this movie was pretty terrible. It was a good B movie at best. Parts that were suppose to be serious and intense were silly, and it was kind of a joke. A few of the characters were well casted (Stewart surprised me) but overall I was not impressed. If you are a huge fan of the book, I would not recommend seeing this movie.
