Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children

The plot was good but it was not really like the book (most bcuz of the character switch) and the acting wasnt the best (the script needs a lot of work). It was also kind of 'fast'( meaning one minute there talking about one thing the next second its about a whole different topic). Other than that it was ok. I would recommend if you haven't read the book though.

A waist of money! My mom was a fan of the books and, when I saw the trailer I wanted to try the books myself. I wasted months reading the entire book series before I saw the movie but, when my mom and, me saw the movie for ourselves we were blown away of how stupid and, weak the story plot was. In the book series Emma's and, Jacob's relationship had a sort of passion that you don't see in many books but, the movie just killed it. The same thing happened again in insurgent but, this was worse and, not to mention I expected a Children friendly movie but, it turned out to be pretty dark and, I'm a adult! I HIGHLY recommend you do not get this movie. It is a waist of your money and, a waist of Time.

I have read the entire 5-book series, and I read the book first and I am extremely extremely disappointed in the movie. Not only was it not true to the storyline at all, it added things that never happened in the books, took Ransom Riggs good ideas, simplified them into a cheap Tim Burton movie and left the rest of the book in the dust. The first rule in making an adaption of a book into a movie is that you don't change the main characters. Emma is supposed to be the one who has the power over fire, true to the book, and Olive is supposed to be a little, childish little girl who floats. Even Miss Peregrine was changed a lot. She was described as a spindely headmisteress, not a model. I would not recommend watching this movie if you have any hope it would parallel the original book series, because I can say as a huge Miss Peregrine fan, this movie has done it to shame. It was horrible. As a technically good movie (if you don't bear in mind that it has ripped off a good, very good, book series), I will give it a two, but I am highly disappointed in it and saddened that such a good work of literature will now be overshadowed by a cheap, poorly made Tim Burton film with horrible effects and bad acting.
