Good movie, not true to the books at all.
It needs to be rebooted with a taller and better suited actor, possibly as a tv series, in (possibly?) chronological order (aligned with the books in episode arc format would be nice). This was an alright movie, but its not what such a fantastic series of books deserves. Now that the sequels out, please kill it and try again.
Please.
*beep* please. This is hollywood *beep* at its best.
