I thought that too !!!
i saw the trailer and decided to give it a miss.
Started reading the book, couldn't get into it, gave the film a miss.
I read the review that was enough for me.

joggerjayne, I found the book hard going, but the film was better. Brilliantly acted and the ending -- WOW !!!!
don't tell everyone what happened as some might want to see it. Not my type of film
Question Author
em10 - no intention of telling anybody how it ended, honest.
i am sure you wouldn't, i remember being told the ending to the Sixth Sense with Bruce Willis, and was decidedly miffed.
Question Author
em10 - I know there's nothing worse. Watching the Sixth Sense I suddenly realised how it was going to end - what a shock. Would have been mortified if somebody had told me that !
i liked the film though, and kind of guessed, but don't like it when film reviewers do that, nor tv reviewers give the plots to the soaps so far ahead.
I thought it was very tame. But then it was only a certificate 15. Needed to be far more graphic.
I've read the book.

Really grffindoor, I thought it was very graphic !

I'd recommend the film ummm, as previously stated, the acting is brilliant.
It's one of my favourite books so I probably will give it a go at some point.
I tried to read the book - found the style very mannered, so gave up. Will see the film if it's on TV, not not waiting like i am for the next series of Dexter!
I will probably catch it at some point as Tilda Swinton is one of my fave actors
Question Author
She is superb in this film Matt. I found myself hating her and feeling sorry for her alternatively !
odd film, low budget feel to it imo
