Movie Reviews of Coming Home
Movie Review: Don't expect the book!
Summary: 1 Stars
If I had never read "Coming Home" I could have liked this film. It is, however, just not at all an adequate adaptation of Rosamunde Pilcher's excellent novel. The soul has been cut out of the story in order to make it fit tidily into a film. The acting and such are fine, as they go, but watching this is like watching a ghost of Pilcher's fine story, and it truly does not satisfy at all. Perhaps Pilcher's books really don't lend themselves to film adaptations. I found the adaptation of "The Shell Seekers" to be an appalling desecration of that book too. They should try to make them into a mini-series.
