OMG, I went to see this last night. All I can say is I was NOT impressed. A literary masterpiece this is not...

AFAIK it is intended as a book for teenagers though. I can't think of m/any literary masterpieces that are aimed at teenagers/children.

Having said that, I heard that the acting is pretty appalling.

The first book was a nice setup.

The second book however was very well done and ending was surprise at least when i read it.


And the movie pretty good. I mean script wasn't bad by any means ( woody harrelson gave an excellent performance.) The pacing never really lagged. And the production values were top notch.

Hell I would go back to pan em again.

As in most cases, the movie was only a hollow shell of the book and in this case, it was sadly so.

The book is actually very good, it may be aimed at a younger peeps, but the writing is outstanding IMHO.

Very worthy of your time.
