The books have much more depth than the movies, besides the ending in the book makes more sense and really closes the storylines.

I was surprised to see my opinion was in the mayority, I expected people would be snobs and say the short story was better. Ironically for Stephen king this is a middle quality story within his body of work and yet the best adaptation of a SK story ever brought to the big screen.

42 , The correct answer was not an option. I have casted my vote never the less, so long and thanks for all the fish.

Suzanne Collins did such a good job of portraying PTSD in the books.

The closing scene is still the most powerful moving and inspiring moments in film. For me, it's the entire movie and I've often wondered about Chief's story and the new beginning he give himself. Even typing this and remembering the music to that scene is an incredible feeling. I love that scene

Book 1 was good. Books 2 and 3 are terrible... The writer just didn't know what to do with the story, how to explain things, how to end things. Movies changed a good part of the stories and made it better.

Heyyy. We don't talk about Fight Club!

German author, german movie. Watch it in german. MACH SCHNELL! JETZT!

Definitely both for me, the book was excellent and the movie really brought it to life, tears everywhere during certain scenes!

I love both actually... I remember reading it before the movie came out and I thought the book did a really good job

The better adaptation was the 90s version with Claire Danes, Winona Ryder, Susan Sarandon, Gabriel Byrne et al. Amazing cast... But the book was better

All the Dune... no matter what... even that old PC game... MORE DUNE

Romeo and Julie isn't a book. It's a play/script

it's a must read, hard to beat Fitzgerald, even with DiCaprio.

I haven't seen the movie because I don't want to ruin the book.

When i saw the trailer for this movie was based on a book, i figured i would read the book first. Apologies, but the book is boring and poorly written. I had to force my self to finish it, thankfully it's a short one. The movies was, while not very deep, at least entertaining and they changed just enough to make it a lovable story. Good for a rainy day.

The movie was vastly different from the book and what I loved most were all the Gen X references to movies, songs etc. Those were mostly lost in the movie.

The book tells you more about what happened with Charlie and his aunt. And why she did the things she did.

The book was one of the biggest pieces of garbage I ever read in my life.

Harry styles is in that movie? I will have to check it out. Love me some H. S.

Secret fourth option: both movie and book are horrendous

The movies can't quite compete with the books, due to them being so information dense. The first movie was probably the closest to the book. That being said, I love it all.

They're equally bad :D
