    Very true, but an intertaining movie anyway.

    I read this book and found it rivetting. Once I was done, I thought to myself "This would make a pretty good movie. I hope someone does". The very next night I was poking around the video store and this movie was on the shelf under "New releases". I couldn't believe my eyes. For about 2 minutes, I believed in God.

    After watching this stinkfest of a film, I have reverted back to atheism.

    One reviewer described the movie as a J8o -- that is, it isn't the worst out there, but in most cases pretty unplayable.
