I still have not read the books despite seeing the movie. A long time ago, I read the first page and didn't read anymore, because I happened to be really finicky when it came to reading books. The movie was great; I can understand why people love and hate it. The acting was great. There was a lot of shaky camera movement and way too many closeups at the beginning, which made it quite distracting and hard to focus on the movie, but shaky camera techniques worked really well for the actual games. I can't wait to read the book...once I can get my hands on a copy, of course.
