Saw the movie this afternoon. It was a very good way to pass the afternoon. I definitely liked the book better though. Meryl Streep was perfect for the part.

Love going to the movies in Florida during the summer!
We had a girls night out tonite, my mom 2 sisters & I. Got kids packs for our movie going refreshments. 20minutes into the movie, the lights flicker. Then the screen goes blank & the lighting in the theatre is obviously emergency lights. We waited a while till an AMC employee came in & said the lights & the movie would be on in 15minutes. 10minutes later another guy comes in to tell us the bad news. Lights out in the entire theatre & no chance of them going back on tonight. Refunds tho for our tickets.
I just finished the book...it wasn't bad, but with you all saying how they changed it, I will most likely wait until it's on HBO to see the movie now. The end (as you all are describing it) sounds far more anticlimactic than the book.

I have not read the book, but got the spoilers from Wikipedia. I do not like one major change they did that is just in the movie. There was no need to degrade Andrea by having her engage in that. I am being vague for those who have not watched it, but it was not really necessary.
