I loved the movie you can tell it is a new director and well it really paid off. No kicking around just to the point and closely related to the book. A couple of points to make first is that Jaspers hair color changed in the movie I felt it gave a little less connection visually between Alice and Jaspers characters and second is that everyone had something to say but Esme, this was a surprise as I actually enjoyed in previous movies her charm and sweet demeanor.
