In my opinion, it's a shame what the director made with that excellent book. Of course it's a hard task to fulfill expectations making an adaption of a book, however, the racially motivated movie created here is just awful. The overall message of the novel is simply ignored... what is left are some names of the characters and the titles of the sequences. The movie is superficial and gives only hints at deeper meanings presented in the book... If you have read the book already, DO NOT watch this movie... if you want to see a superficial, flat and wannabe-cool movie then go ahead... It's aof otherwise good devices, on the level of film-making, as well literal meanings.
