Book is better!
Contains spoilers, click to show
The movie is good but i think they changed too much from the book to the movie. Like the scene in the movie where she dives under water to the sunken ship and then blows all the water out. Yeah thats not in the book?

Excellent Movie
I've read the book twice, so I was excited for the movie. It is excellent because it does a pretty great job of following the book as closely as possible. Matt Damon did a great job playing the main character and it was very cool to see the book come to life in the movie.

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.

I've always loved the movie and have been curious to read the book. It was MUCH shorter than I had expected but the movie stayed true to the story and it was easy to recall the visuals for each scene. However, the book didn't seem as engaging or captivating as the movie and I didn't really get a sense of the characters.
