Movie Reviews of A Painted House
Movie Review: A major disappointment
Summary: 2 Stars
This was one of my favorite John Grisham books. When I learned it was a movie I could not wait to see it. Now that I have seen the movie I wish they never made it. It has the worst narration I have ever heard. The narrator spoke with no feeling or emotion and you could clearly tell he was reading from a script. I guess you can't expect much from a made for TV movie but I was expecting more. Great parts of the book were left out and the actors did a fair job portraying people that were so clearly defined in the book. I wonder if they even read the book?Movie Review: The book was better... by far...
Summary: 2 Stars
This was my first John Grisham book and I absolutely loved the book, and I, too, was excited about seeing the movie. The acting was bad, the narration and script was terrible, there were parts of the book left out (which is understandable) and a few things were twisted a little. I don't feel like any of the characters were really developed in the movie. Overall, I'd recommend reading the book because the movie was a poor depiction of a great novel.Movie Review: Read it instead.

If you see it you'll never want to read it, a great book to read. The movie didn't carry the half of it.
