The movie was too rushed and skipped a lot of details

I read the book and enjoyed it. And I was excited to see this movie, especially with Lily Collins in it.

But this movie unfortunately sucked b/c it was boring, No wonder it flopped. They should've added more details from the book and rush them. By doing this, maybe this film would've been better.

I enjoyed it. But I never read the books. So maybe my opinion doesn't count.

I thought it was ok. It gave me enough interest to start reading the book.

It really needed to be a 4 hour movie...but no chance of that...I am happy with the TV series..

This film was beyond dreadful. I couldn't even finish it I was cringing that hard.

Dreadful acting, dreadful characters, dreadful pace, dreadful cringe-y 'romance'. The only thing I can say for it is the production design was quite nice and that Robert Sheehan's Simon was by far the only character with any sort of likeability.
