As a fanatic fan of the book series I was more excited than most for the release of this film, but it not only blew away my expectations but left me wanting to return to the theater to experience it again (which I’ve done 2 additional times). This movie didn’t have a single area of disappointment, the cinematography, creativity, & music scores really put it a step above. If you’ve read the books you know that it is impossible to adapt everything of importance to screen and some creative liberties will need to be taken, but they did a great job on that as well. I’ve told everyone who will listen to go see this movie as personally I found it to be the best movie I’ve ever seen in theaters and it’ll likely go down in my top 5 off all time. The bar has been set in the stratosphere for part 3 and all future sci-fi movies.
