      Audience Member An interesting premise ruined by a dramatic shift in tone and content from a love triangle romantic comedy to a fantasy thriller. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Although the book has many more layers and is a wonderful read I was thoroughly impressed by the way Krabbe directed this. A delightful watch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Read the book, people! If you've read the book there's no way you can appreciate this film, it doesn't grasp the 'largeness' of the book at all. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member O fantástico livro não coube dentro deste filme medíocre, muito mal servido pelos seus actores (e pelo argumentista), com a excepção do notável Stephen Fry, o único que conseguiu fazer a sua personagem valer a pena. Por ele, leva as duas estrelas, senão ficava-se por uma. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member funny and typically English :P Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member this is a very bad interpretation of a fabulous book, it doesn't provide any insight into the characters, their ideas; I highly recommend the book but strongly advice not to watch the movie Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
