Craaaaaaap movie.
And no, it's not bcoz I didn't understand/get it; I simply thought it a predictable & poorly fabricated tale.
I haven't read the book but I seriously doubt it would interest me any more than the movie did.
Most complimentary thing I can say about it is - pretty to look at; best enjoyed with the sound turned down.
The three words I'd use to sum this movie up are - contrived, hollow & lukewarm.
