if i could vote negative i would . i saw the original movie year and year ago and then read chriton book . this remake of the movie be so far away from the book i agree with another commenter that chriton should have sue before he die for trademark infringement on the title . remake be rarely even close to the original in quality but this be so far at the opposite range quality it fall off the scale . as much a i be look forward to a modernization to the book and the original film and i could not have be more disappointed . i be a huge fan of chriton but the screen writing of this movie miss not only the atmosphere of the book but be detach entirely from the technology vs. man theme of chriton original .
