well i started his thread and sorry to say but we went out to the pub!
sorry i haven't replied before but just came in and read this thread and there is a lot of different opinions .... so i need to see it myself really.
my 19yr old daughter watched it and said it was scary!!! she never read the book and now wont because she thinks it would be depressing!! Not what i was thinking, i never thought it would be scary or depressing (apart from the being murdered bit)
i think i will re read the book and then buy the film.
