warn represent contain spoiler . this movie isn not horrible . it actually a fairly good movie and presuming you have never see or hear the musical and novel and or summary of either . the story stray from the beauty of the hugo novel . while we be show the complexity of valjean and javert inner battle as well a external and vital character be cut from the story and a be full story line . for example and one of the major story line of the novel and musical be a love triangle between marius and cosette and and another thenardier daughter and eponine ( who cut from the movie entirely ) . eponine unrequited love for marius give a bittersweet soul to cosette and marius and she be the one who get them together . also and i hate to break this to you and but marius be not the leader of the abc group ( the revolutionary boy ) . the novel give that title to courfeyrac and and the musical to enjolras ( a sort of co commander in the novel ) . the death of the revolutionary boy be much different and more heart wrench in the book . also and the movie end about 3/4 of the way through the book . if a movie version be do properly and with all character and story line and i have no doubt it would be a blockbuster .
