I’ve read books far away before they make it into a movie. The Books blows my mind, my imagination, i loved to know about japanese culture specially about geisha. How they dance, how they play music and everything. I think I read more then 3 times as far i remember and when I saw it on movie, it become visual and seems real. Every actress/actor play very well, cinematography also excellent, eventho many part missed from book (2 and half hours movie can’t describe how beautiful this book) but still fascinating. Mesmerizing and still blow my imagination.
And, for those criticism maybe they know how to make movie better then this. That’s why they do critic. Perhaps we can watch their movie on big screen eh? LOL
