Thanks Soror. I think I might enjoy the book b/c I really wanted to see more of a development of those relationships, etc. It was good but it just seemed like a movie that could have really left the audience kind of stunned but it didn't do it.
Keeping my fingers crossed for a part two LOL

The book itself does not give the director tons to work with in terms of action in the movie, there is plenty of info on the state of the world, the hopelessness, an extremely disturbing scene called a quietus, which is somewhat mentioned in the movie but not in the same way as the book.
Overall, the movie is good and the book is good but both for different reasons. I enjoyed both.
