I was originally excited but then very let down by this movie. The major problem I had was the ending and weak ending left me with a poor final impression on the whole film. The book had a great ending with a big action sequence following the crucial event that happens at the end. For some reason the writer/director saw fit to omit the most cinematic part of the book and trade it for a weak action sequence that they made up to stuff into the middle because it didn't have enough action. It was a decent movie, passable, but a let down for true fans as opposed to fanatics and nothing worth getting excited over.
