3.0One of those rare examples where the film is way better than the book. The narrative is slow a stilted, the actions of our "hero" unbelievable and flat out dumb at times. There are some saving graces in here, but they're hidden behind the unnecessary words. Only for people truly interested in seeing where the source material from the film originated.
