Spud (2010)
Books are so much better
The books were absolutely hilarious and i liked the character of Spud in the books but in the movie he just seems really wimpy, annoying, a grass, posh and desperate to be cool.
Also in the books the dad and wombat character are so funny but in the film they were really boring, and didn't seem as crazy.
Also the character of The Guv was also no where near as mad or crazy or funny as he is in the books!
It could of been so so much better. If you have only seen the film, don't just base your opinion on that; read the books too!
Overall i would say read the books DEFINITELY but the film is not really worth seeing at all.
Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant (2009)
Loved the books. Film wasn't so good..
I absolutely loved these books when I was younger! They were about vampires but it wasn't like twilight. When the film came out, It was a few years after i had finished reading the books but i thought i would go see it because i loved the books so much. I was really disappointed though, and it wasn't what i was expecting at all. Some of the characters were NOTHING like they were in the book. Like Mr Tiny! And Gavner Purl! I understand films don't always do an exact adaptation of the book, but some of the scenes they fabricated didn't fit at all, and the scenes in the book would of been so much better! Overall, the film was okay...but it could of been so much better! I would recommended you read the books (DEFINITELY) and then go see the film and decide for yourself. But the books are way better!
