I thought this was a very good adaptation of an excellent book. As with any movie adaptation, some details got lost, but the overall "soul" of the story was maintained. I suspect this was in part because of the author's involvement in production. I watched the movie with my husband who has not read the book and who doesn't have much interest in the genre (though he enjoyed the Hunger Games movie and did go on to read those books). He had to ask me a couple of questions early on about what was going on with the factions but otherwise seemed to enjoy the movie. Afterward, he said it was a good movie with lots of action (which is high praise from someone who doesn't generally bother to comment on such things).
