I never read the book so I could enjoy the movie on its own merits. Very good movie with top talent. The young actress who stars is outstanding. This is not a feel good hollywood formula movie, but that's part of the appeal. It's real and complex.

if you want complete details, too much was left out of the story line...i didn't care for the way you got bits and pieces of how ingrid came to kill barry. however, those of you who haven't read the book will be satisfied, the acting was great and the issues that were addressed in the movie followed the book's story line well.

pretty good. A lot of the details were left out, as often is the case in movies that originated with books. But overall this was good. You should definitely read the book though first or you'll be left wondering about the in between stuff. Michelle Pfeiffer is wonderful as always.

I agree that a lot was left out. Like how the young child could have stopped the murder. It was a good movie if I understood it a little better. Kept you thinking all night.

I really enjoyed this movie. I'd watch it again. Beautiful performances, deep. I liked how the girl was a chamelion and changed with each new family in an attempt to please but also to find herself.

This one was surprisingly good - it's older but if you haven't seen it yet, it's worth your time.

If you read the book, you will really like the movie; the movie pales as to the book, although they did a good job. But really, read the book, its fantastic.
