The Movie

I recently saw the movie version for It's Kind of a Funny Story and let me tell you I was not very impressed. Don't get me wrong, the movie was good except for the fact that it was nothing like the book. A pet peeve of mine is when they change movies and put things that didn't happen in the book in the movie, also when they leave big, important pieces out. That happened a lot in this movie and it kind of aggitated me. If someone who hadn't read the book watched the movie they would probably enjoy it but I found myself shaking my head and saying "nonono that didn't happen, this is all wrong" throughout the book. I really wish they would have stayed more true to the book at some parts, but it is what it is. The characters were what I expected them to be like and I enjoyed that a lot. Overall it was a good movie (minus the few parts that were different from the book).
