i be watch this movie for the first time on sky one and and be try really hard to feel surprised at the twist and turn of the ( yawn ) action . i read all of uncle jules book a a boy and and saw all the action movie of the 50 and 60 . i be sure it a childhood thing and these story do not appeal much to me now . one of the previous comment mention there be woman in this movie and and there be none in the original book . this be mainly because our author live in the day when men write about other men a adventurer and and leave all the romantic stuff to woman author . so there be room for a little poetic license and or the film would be make exactly like the original . my thought drift back to of mouse and menwhen george tell lennie his story about the farm they be go to live on and lennie knew exactly how the story go and but insist on hear it anyway . this movie be the kind that attract the fantasy fan and but i be watch it all the way through and despite the urge to fall asleep and dream it good for myself . so far i give it negative and but this could all change in an hour or so . 0 for 4 and good than 2001. keep em come .
