So many things wrong with these movies... i was basically thinking, why did they bother making them if they didn't want to stick to the same storey line. The books were fantastic and they have made such a mess. The basic things that were important to the storey line were the colour of the characters hair, it may seem like it wasn't important but if you are a fan of the books you will know why. Heaven was brunette, her mother Angel was Blonde, the next book is called dark Angel because heaven looked like Angel but dark. Her step mother Sarah was a Red Hed as well as all her children except Fanny, she always wanted Luke's dark hair boy so he would love her, but in the movie Tom was dark hair. Fanny should have been younger and cheeky, very promiscous and beautiful. Kitty should have been a Vuluptous Red Head. Leigh should have been a young beautiful blonde. So many issues with all these Characters that didn't suit the descriptions.
The other issue is the sets, they just seemed so wrong, the cabin should have been shabby and poor, they made it seem modern and new. The set's were made to look like they were all Modern, but this should have been in the 60's in poor outback West Virginia. The manor Farthy was not luxurious enough.
They missed so much crucial plot in the first movie, where heaven and her siblings were left alone for months and they had no food left, they had to steal and find food themselves. They missed out on so much juicy details, just really poor and lazy, the acting wasn't great either. Sorry but why did they bother, did the writers even read the books?
