I enjoyed the book. He does rip off Tolkien a bit, but he was only 15 when he started writing it, so I can overlook it. I think it will be a good movie.

I love Jeremy Irons. He's a wonderful actor.

And Joss Stone? That little british bombshell has a set of amazing pipes. It will be cool to see her in a movie.

I have a feeling that this might make a better movie than the book was. The book was good, but this could be a really really neat movie.

John Malcovitch is perfect for the villan.

Oh, I didn't even see John Malcovitch's name. Yes, he's a very good actor, and he's GREAT playing a "bad" role.

Brom was my favorite character. I'm very pleased that JI is playing him.

Should I quickly read this before seeing the film then? Is it a biggy or will I be able to whip through it before the film's released?
