Everything, Everything Book Vs Movie
Everything, Everything is a great book. It's an even better movie. It doesn't follow the story of the book for every detail but still finds a way to make the storyline better. Amanda Stenberg and Nick Robinson play the parts perfectly. In the movie and unlike the book Oliver covers Maddy window in the one thing she dreams of seeing the most, the ocean. The movie and book are both excellent pieces of work. The movie itself was just more superior. It little changes just gave the plot more meaning. Everything, Everything the movie was better than the book including the minor changes.
Amanda Stenberg plays Maddy an 18-year girl with SCID or what she calls "bubble baby disease". She has had it for 18 years and has never been outside because of it. In the book, Maddy is a biracial child just like Amanda. Nick Robinson fits his Olly character perfectly as well. During the movie, you could really see magic between them. Maddy mother had her own mental problem. After her husband and son died she wanted to protect her daughter. Her daughter because of her obsession pretty much. She believed everything was making her sick. That even the simple unfiltered air she breathed would kill her. Maddy had her own personal nurse. Her name is

In the movie, it is clear from the very beginning that Maddy dreams of being in the ocean. You might as well just call her a mermaid. When Olly is banned from seeing Maddy he covers her favorite room with two glass walls with photos of a variety of different oceans and beaches. The place she deserved to be able to go to. In the movie, Olly has no roof hideout. The roof was how Olly got away from his abusive father. In the movie, Olly Father isn't featured as much as he is in the book which could be seen positively. He was a drunk with many problems that affected Olly mother and Sister along with him. Mr. Waterman was in the book and an unnecessary character. He was one of Maddy

    The settings I imagined while reading the book were very different from what I saw in the movie. Some of the characters such as Kenny and Byron were shorter than I imagined, but Joetta was taller than I imagined her and Grandma Sands looked very different than I imagined. I thought she would be tiny, really old looking, and very mean. She wasn’t really any of those. The settings were very different such as the church and the Watsons house. I thought they would be more dated. Their house wasn’t modern, but wasn’t as old as I imagined from the context clues in the book. Overall I liked the movie better because it had more information about racism and I felt I learned more about it. I think I would like the movie even better if it had Rufus as a character, but it was still a great…

    I liked the movie better. I personally did not really like the ending of the book. A. Square got to see the 3rd dimension, something no one except the council knew about. I thought there was going to be a big revelation at the end of the book, but instead he gets thrown into jail and basically forgotten. It was like nothing happened. Not even his grandson found out.…

    Personally, I like the book better. The movie just doesn't give enough information. It leaves out so many details from the book that it just messes up the story line. Don't get me wrong the movie was a great movie but it just wasn't good enough. It needed more details than what it had. The little details is what counts the…

    There are some movies that are adapted from the novel such as Harry Potter, Da Vinci Code, Twilight Saga, The Hunger Games and Lagenda Budak Setan. What are the differences between watching a movie and reading a novel? There are some contrasts between the two actions. One of the differences is by watching a movie, you just need to sit and relax. It is very easy since you only need to watch it and understands it. Furthermore, you can watch the movie while doing something else such as eating or exercising. You do not really have to focus like to imagine how the atmosphere is in the movie at that time or how a person is walking down the streets. Lastly, you can avoid disbelief since it is a multi-sensory experience. On the other hand, by reading…

    Of Mice and Man is a great movie with surprise twists. Even though they took out scenes from the book the put their own scene in order to make a good movie while sticking with the book. The way they hook the person to watch the movie by adding a thrilling chase scene and we don’t know what’s happening so we want to keep watching to see why they are being chased and hiding. I personally would give this movie 5 stars because it is one of the best movies from a book I have…

    Some actors acted and appeared entirely different in the movie than the book. The directing and special effects were okay in some scenes, but half-baked and lousy in others. Furthermore, the characters are developed far less in the film and many semi-important scenes in the novel are excluded in the film. Do not watch this movie unless you have read the novel (or even if you have read it). If you haven’t read the book and decide to watch the movie instead, you will fail to understand the complicated relationships between each character and between the Socs and Greasers and just think the movie is substandard and all aspects of the movie lacked in action, emotion, or just seemed like they were not well thought out. A 3.5/10 may seem harsh, but I was not pleased. Just go read the book instead. It had the potential to be a great film, but severely missed the…

    The Book Thief is an encouraging tale of a fictional girl named Liesel. Liesel was raised during a time of great pain and suffering: Nazi Germany. Many Jews, Gypsies, mentally and physically disabled, and others were killed over a ten year timespan. Scope magazine adapted the book and the movie to create a play. One of the characters, named Death, states, “I’m always finding humans at their best and worst. I see their ugly and their beauty, and I wonder how the same thing can be both.” True, we’re all human beings but how we picture the world and react to it is a whole different story. The extent of examples that can be found in the novel, movie, play, and even real life Nazi Germany has a very wide range including the mass murders and the “Harriet Tubman”s.…

    In the book & the movie Kidnapped what I found interesting in the movie was when the gun did not shoot when the captain tried to kill Alan and it worked when Davie shot the Captain I also found interesting was when the uncle of Davie said “Why are you here” with gun pointing at Davie. Another part that was interesting was blowing up the ship instead of cashing the ship. The finally part that I found interesting was when Alan killed the head of the Red coats the Red fox. I never thought Alan will give up his life for James because I thought he was a really scared of losing his life the way it was. I wrote about this topic because it shows me the differences and the similarity of the movie & book.…
