My husband and I recently watched this because of all the hype surrounding it. We agreed that the movie was pretty good, but it seemed like some things were left out. Neither of us have read the books (although we now plan to). I'm hoping the books can help fill in some of the gaps in the movie and explain more about the society.
Loved the books and the movie. I think reading the books first helps with the movie. And when you read the books you can understand the characters better. But they did a great job keeping your attention.
a very well done screenplay, based on a truely magnificent book
Loved this, stayed true to the book!!!
READ THE BOOKS FIRST!!! If you don't you most likely won't understand some of it because of all of the internal monolog.
