When it comes to movies basing the storyboards of novels, I HAVE to read the novel before the movie and even though the movie was FAR from what the novel interpreted it would be, it didn't seem to matter because this movie kind of followed it's own path that had a parallel story to the novel. It was such a wonderful movie to watch. Even though the comic relief(Patrick Neal Harris) was a little over-done, he made the movie all the more entertaining.
Alex Pettyfer on the sidenote exemplifies my expectation of Kyle Kingsbury.
Lastly, even though the nanny was supposed to be Puerto Rican(and Kendra in the end of the novel), Will having a dog with him named Pilot, Kyle's second name not Hunter but Adrian King, and Lindy being a freckled red-head, this MOVIE was wonderful all throughout :)
