Carley Taylor (9 KP) rated Harold and Maude in Books
Feb 1, 2018
Much like the movie, this book left me happy but tearful. Thoughtful about life and I'm happy to say this is one book to movie adaptation that was entirely faithful. Ruth Gordon is the greatest actress who could have ever imbued Maude and I'm so happy I decided to read this book. Beautiful work of humanity.

Juicy Fun
This is one of the few times I'll say that the adaptation (HBO show) is better than the book. The characters aren't nearly as well fleshed-out in the book, and it's a bit uneven. Fans of the show will probably enjoy it though.

The Little Drummer Girl, BBC1, review: a superbly tense climax to a dark and downbeat spy saga
Though not as glossy as The Night Manager, this adaptation proved John Le Carre is as good as anyone exploring the dark side of human nature

JUMPCUT ONLINE (77 KP) rated Good Omens in TV
Jul 3, 2019
Look, it’s not perfect. But it is entirely charming, and does an excellent job of capturing the spirit, the humor, and the magic of the novel that has won so many hearts over the years. After all this time, it’s exactly the sort of faithful adaptation that the fans deserve.

Peter G. (247 KP) rated Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971) in Movies
Jul 11, 2019
A staple Christmas movie and the best adaptation there is, the remake was unnecessary and was very messy.
It's a wonderfully story and contains some great musical numbers and Gene Wilder was nothing short of amazing bringing the titular character to life.
Not sure if it will ever be bettered, I dont think they should try..classic!

Odd by name, but not Odd by nature
Well acted and Yelchin always a good watch. More than decent supporting cast and a good adaptation of the source novel by Dean Koontz.
Well worth a watch and currently on Amazon Prime
