i honestly didnt like the movie. it was rushed, had things that were never a part of the books, and tried putting a books series with 12 books into 1 single movie. i had really high hopes for this movie but i guess it didnt live up to its orginal counterpart. in the future, id really want someone to make a show about these books and if they make a movie, make multiple please. i feel that someone who read and loved the books would be better at showing people how great cirque du freak was. i wouldn’t recommend this movie to people who’ve read the series but to people who havent, i still don’t recommend it. just read the books. pls
