The book is better, but we will not talk about it.
In general movies on book are always a risk. It can dislike to readers or the film can be "crumpled" in attempt to convey the essence. And of course movie will be discussed today is inferior to the book, but it is not bad film. It really tell to us slight other story we must to believe in it.
Movie "City of Ember" was released in 2008 and let's to be honest it didn'n blow the audience, so much that it didn't even pay off. It's strenge having in castes Bill Murray, Toby Jones, Mackenzie Krook, that one-eyed guy from the Pirates of the Caribbean. But the main question now is why I told you about the movie, if the movie didn't work out well. But I like it! Who knows, maybe I wouldn't have found out about it if I hadn't read the book, but it happened. The beautifull picture added to my knowladge from the book. For everyone how have not read it... It will show up a little strange in main because small spaces are seldom perceived well by the public. I like a such movies so much, where actions take place in the same room or city (of course except horror films). There are something own in such films. Story of underground city is fascinating, together with the characters of the film you'll know who built it, how the city was built and also you'll watch for their attempts to get out. I envy those who will not have a spoilers from the book in their head)
We recommend the movies there, so I will not advise the book, but I say that all the missing details of the movie you can find in a fine trilogy of books by Jeanne DuPrau. mr_MR exactly recommend the movie to watch, but assess 6/10 (because I had red the bookes)
P.S: It is dedicated to everybody who are waiting for the screening of the last two books.
