What a load of tosh Wibble Send a noteboard - 04/11/2013 04:05:06 PM

But then since the movie removes all subplots, meanings and changes a number of key points, I'm not surprised.

The book asks a number of important questions, one of which is - how far is too far when the problem is survival of the species? None of which came out in the movie I felt.

Not really? It's about the same, but with more non-violent bits. beetnemesis - 05/11/2013 03:26:46 PM 727 Views

The best YA novels are ones that have deeper levels beetnemesis - 04/11/2013 08:56:38 PM 736 Views
