I haven't seen the film yet. I was at a wedding this weekend. I have however read the book four times. It truly is a wonderful book and I can't help but be reminded of another of of my absolute favorite books of all time that got a movie made that followed none of the actual written story and that is I Am Legend. Both films seem to completely trail off from the original mood, meaning, and structure of its written counterpart.
I'll still see it but I'll in no way expect anything like the book. I just wish, as Pete said, that they didn't slap the same title on an otherwise "original" movie.
