If you are an avid reader, this may come off as one of the closest to the book (other than the first one). but still missed parts in the book. But again, I think the main parts were expressed through the movie.. but for those who read the books, where was his cape through the whole movie??? that was something that bothered me bc they used it throughout. Anyways, def worth seeing the movie either way ESPECIALLY if you don't read the books!! Enjoy
