Adapting a book to the screen is quite a challenge. Cut a scene, and critics might accuse you of ruining the narrative. Alter a character, and you risk alienating fans. But if done right, it's truly impressive.

There's a whole discussion on Reddit where people have been sharing rare examples of filmmakers surpassing the source material with their cinematic vision. From cult classics such as American Psycho to more recent productions like I’m Thinking of Ending Things, here are the movies that audiences believe are actually better than the book.

I love both. Goldman obviously has chops as a screenwriter, because it’s a classic film with funny dialogue, fabulous set pieces, good characters, and a plot that keeps moving. But his book allowed for more detail, and slightly more bite in the humour.

30 Surprising Film Adaptations That Outdid Their Books Godfather.

The book was obviously a best seller but it had some really - REALLY — cringe side plots (involving huge d***s and huge vags; Puzo seems to have had a fetish about outsized sex organs) which Coppola wisely dropped in the film.

I love seeing Vito playing with the young cat. He's this ruthless mob boss yet he can enjoy the antics of an innocent creature. I also love that the cat just wandered in and Brando picked it up and started playing with it. The cat wasn't in the script!

30 Surprising Film Adaptations That Outdid Their Books Jaws, in my opinion. The book is not bad, don’t get me wrong, but the characters in it are extremely unlikeable. I think Spielberg was right to eliminate some of the subplots and to buff the characters up to be more likable/relatable. Also, the end of the book kinda sucked. I won’t spoil it, but compared to the movie it’s extremely anti-climatic.

I still like both, the book is still a very good read and I understand why it was such a phenomenon, but I’ll always say the movie was better.

30 Surprising Film Adaptations That Outdid Their Books Who Framed(Censored) Roger Rabbit.

The books plot is very different, and the characters are all unlikeable. Eddie isn't a tragic character who's dealing with his brothers death by drinking his life away and alienating all the toons he used to befriend. He's a hard bitten, hard drinking a*****e just because. Roger is dead, and the character who k*lled him doesn't really make any sense. The producers of the movie took the idea of a world with toons and humans and threw away the plot. They made the right choice; the movie turned out amazing.

Disagree. Maybe this is a cultural thing. I'm from the UK and Roald Dahl is a national treasure here... his work feels very British. I hated the American adaptation when I was a child. It didn't feel right at all. As an adult I can appreciate the cast and the work that went into it, but culturally it still doesn't feel like Dahl's books felt to me.

TBH the movies bear (haha) little or no resemblance to the books, or the 1970s children's TV shows made out of them. Yes, I liked the films, but to say they're "better" is kinda missing the point of the orignal books.

30 Surprising Film Adaptations That Outdid Their Books Casino Royale - the improved Felix Leiter character makes it infinitely more interesting, buttressed by an amazing performance from Jeffrey Wright.

First Blood - the book is just violence p*rn.

LOTR - ok I know this one is going to p**s a lot of people off. Tolkien never intended to write a story in the way we think of a novel/movie. I get that. He did what he was going for very well. But I find the movies more enjoyable. Sue me. That said, The Hobbit movies are garbage. Peter Jackson reached George Lucasian heights in making a prequel trilogy that’s so bad it diminishes the quality of the original. If you don’t have time to read the book and want to see it on screen, watch the Rankin Bass cartoon from the 70s.

Steven King said the way he wrote the ending, the main character (the dad) suggested the movie's ending is something he might potentially do. Pay attention in the book and it's there. I also have The Mist as a Stereo Sound Dramatization. It's awesome. It sounds like you are in the middle of all the action and, if you use headphones or stereo speakers, you only hear certain sounds only one or the other side. It's one of my favorite King short stories.

While Laika studios does amazing animation, the tone of the film was so different to the book. I much preferred the book. It felt creepier, and Coraline was all alone, except for the cat, who was impossible to rely on. In the film they added that random boy, who was totally unnecessary, and they ramped up the action, which changed the tone a lot.

I respectfully disagree with the Jason Bourne series. The movies are very good romps of action and conspiracy, but Robert Ludlum just nailed the sense of paranoia and desperation that Bourne experiences, and the transformation from amnesia-ridden victim into vengeance-fueled killer. The movies updated the technology, but put yourself in the recent historical mindset and the books are amazing. The Day of the Jackal is another where the movie and book are both great political thrillers, if you're interested.

30 Surprising Film Adaptations That Outdid Their Books Starship troopers hands down. The movie heavily satirizes the original book. If you like the movie you'll probably find the book deeply distasteful.

EDIT: IDK if some of y'all saw the movie first and read the satire and undermining tone of that and applied it to the book, but the book is NOT great.

It's openly pro-fascist and the movie is so good because of how effectively it lampoons the book. If you read the book as satire more power to you (death of the author and all) but do know that others are aware of the author's intention and interpret praise of the book as praise of the ideology it was produced to support.

OP missed the entire point of the book. I am 64 yoa, and read that book before you were born. The entire book was a lampoon of media driven fascism. Whatever school you attended, they failed you miserably. The movie doesn't "lampoon the book". Missed the point entirely.

I wish I hadn't been so turned off by the comics, I skimmed through them and now I can't stand anything to do with them. But the concept is interesting. The ~GrItTy rEaLiSm~ swung too far the other way, hopefully the show dragged it back.

The Rules of Attraction. The book was fine, but the movie had stunning visuals that took it much further. While the script lifted some lines directly from the book, I think the script had better character development and a tighter story.

Gone Girl. The book was made to be a movie and the movie does not disappoint.

I was literally disappointed with this movie. I thought the ending was a let down.

I strongly disagree with this one, they turned Noah from a sweet poet into a drunk asshat. The book always leaves me in tears. The movie just pissed me off.

Isn't the book Mean Girls is based on (Queen Bees and Wannabes?) non fiction anyway? It's not a story
