The book is a good read and worth giving a try, even if you saw the movie and didn't like it. The movie hacks up a good book and makes the main character a teenager instead of a grown man. It also has a whole lot less character build up and characters to love. While Michael Irons... read more
Now, this was his second best film. "Silver Bullet" still reigns amongst his collection of movies.
