I’m old enough to have read the books before the movie existed.
The movie is actually not bad! I avoided it for years because I thought, no way it could live up to the books. It doesn’t, but it does a good job trying! I might have liked it more if I watched it when it was new.
My family had this vhs and child me knew it wasn’t some childish entertainment, so I avoided it for a long time. I was still pretty darn young when I ended up watching it, but I remember quite enjoying it. It might’ve even been the first serious movie I watched because I put it on. lol Usually it was my parents or siblings putting on the more serious stuff back then.
