I was reading the review of the film Atonement yesterday and it basically said that it was a brilliant book that should never have been made into a film because of the lousy job they've done of it.

For me, Captain Corelli's Mandolin was exactly the same - amazing book and lousy film. Yet, the Harry Potter films have all done quite well and have kept fairly true to the books. What does everyone else think?
