I'm a reader of the After series and it's safe to say that this is one of the worst book-movie adaptions i've watched so far. They don't explain much about the story line, and completely cut out important and acknowledgeable scenes that made the book great. Basically, if you didn't read the book, you're utterly confused to an extent. The movie makes Hardin look like an ass and Tessa a goody two shoes who's just as annoying as Molly. I don't recommend this movie for users who have NOT read the book, if you did however it is quite easy to enjoy to a minimal extent. I'm not saying this movie is as bad as Netflix's Death Note but it's severely close to it.
