This movie comes with its strengths and weaknesses‚ most of its weaknesses coming from the quality of the film production and the movie’s strengths coming from it’s striking resemblance to the earlier made novel. The short movie mirrored the book in so many ways that only really small details were left out such as Scrooge going to the tavern to get his dinner

    favorite authors so you would think that finding out that one of her books was going to be adapted into a movie would make me excited. However‚ due to previous attempts of portraying her works on film‚ I was actually left more skeptical instead (The pilot for the planned television series based off of Delirium was an absolutely disgusting mess).

    I like the book more than the movie. Audience reaction has to be taken into consideration in a way that books don’t have to. The audience‚ cannot‚ even for a moment‚ be confused as to who the "bad guy" is. Otherwise‚ you can have a teenage Scarface. "Moral Convenience" is what’s pissing you off.

This is the reason why fantasy-themed works

    movies. We often watch more than one movie on this special night. Last year‚ we decided to watch Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief‚ and Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Sea of Monsters. My siblings and I had read and loved the books‚ written by Rick Riordan‚ so we thought‚ “How bad could it be? It would be amazing to see these incredible stories onscreen!” We were wrong.
