    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.

    strengths and weaknesses in the movie. I am surprised that Brianne did not use the lawmen as her weakness for the movie instead of using the underdeveloped villain as the weakness in her paper.

I do like and agree with Brianne that one of the strengths in this movie was the storyline plot

The film solely limits the plot and
