I really liked the book! I really like the film too though

I think they're too different to compare, really. Kind of like World War Z.

Yeah, but it had its own awfulness, like the Iron Giant used completely inappropriately.

The book told a better story

It just wouldn't have made for a very compelling movie, as a lot of it is in Wade's head

So they ended up changing it drastically

So, which one you like better will depend a lot on whether that ^ bothers you
