Jules. Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I saw it last night, it is quite loosely based on the book, but was still ok. The "Shadow scene" was totally over-set, in the book it happens next to a car park, in the film it was a lavish castle courtyard. I'd give it 7 out of 10.

Scramble Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I'm going to see that next. The books was brilliant but from the trailer the film looks much differnet, but still great! I saw Twilight today, definetly worth a watch, I'm off to buy the book now! I know Kitbag's reccomended it, it was fabulous. x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 One daughter is seeing Twilight tomorrow,the other in a couple of days,& I am going to see it once I have read the book. I did try to read Inkheart, but it just didn't do it for me, so I will probably give the movie a miss, especially as reviews have not been great Shame, as there are a lot of fans out there who have been eagerly awaiting the movie.

Cooks Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I have considered taking the boys to see this for my OS birthday at the end of Dec, but I read a few reviews and they were not that great, I will be reading this with interest as we have not read the books, I was going to get them, but one thing and another didn't get around to it, so the films will be our first experience of it as it were.

Egluntyne Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I did try to read Inkheart, but it just didn't do it for me, so I will probably give the movie a miss I read the first book, but had to force myself to finish it. Not my kind of thing. I'll not bother with the film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules. Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 Maybe the books are a bit like marmite- you either love them or hate them! *Shouts loudly* Christian, come & back me up about the books being good:lol: Maybe something in the books is lost in the translation from the original German to English I must admit they are not the easiest of books to read, but well worth the effort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I think the books are fabulous, Inkheart was great and I've just finished Inkspell just in time as Inkdeath is on my Christmas list! x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
