Honestly, after reading the book and watching the movie, I thought the book was far by better than the movie. The book was so intriguing and interesting but very different from the movie. The movie on the other hand, was a bit awkward to watch, because of the actors acting (in my opinion). Also, I thought the director tried a bit too hard to make the main character (Maddy) to be aesthetic which I thought was unnesaccery but I did like some of the scenes within the movie. I just wish the director (and the author i guess) could have made the scenes more realistic like the part where she knew how to swim, like c'mon she's been locked up in her room for years and she knows how to swim? In addition, the sountrack was actually really good.
