Book Rating

Entertaining but flawed

Unusually, this is a book that I’d rate about on par with the film adaptation. As with the film, this is an entertaining read and fairly well written. The basic plot is the same although there have been a few tweaks made for the film - some better, some worse. I much prefer the ending in the book to the film, it’s a little more depressing and a lot less Hollywood (unsurprisingly). I don’t really have much to say about this book, it’s a quick read and quite good, and plods along at a fairly decent rate, it’s just nothing massively special.

Kudos

Non-stop action!

These movies just keep getting better and better. Tom Cruise kicks it up a notch from one movie to the next. His stuntwork is some of the best Hollywood has ever seen. He drives a motorcycle against traffic in Paris. He jumps from rooftop to rooftop. He flies a helicopter over low ground. He HALO jumps. He's crazy & I love it!!! Give me more!!
