Andres Gomez (Rated: 8)
Really complex and sweet movie with a great story, script and performances from Lerman, Watson and Miller.
Also, great directing and cut. A really good movie for a rainy day.
Sidney Prescott (Rated: 10)
This movie was godly. No other like it. Truly a spiritual experience.

This movie & book honest to god changed my life. I also feel that they supplement each other well. The movie includes details not included in the book and vice versa. Read the book and then watch the movie, its a spiritual experience.
