I absolutely LOVE what they did with this series. The movie that was made in 2004 is nothing compared to what they have done with the Netflix series. Yes, there will always be differences between films from books, but overall I am very, very, pleased. I'm so glad I came across it and took the time to give it a chance. For something created from a series of events so unfortunate to put numerous smiles on my face has been a very ironic joy. 🙂 I love how they brought the comedy of oblivious adults vs the intelligence of the children to life. I would/will recommend to those I know are able understand and appreciate its form of art, both book and film series.
