Review Detail

It was not as good as the movie.

That said, it wasn't terrible either, I enjoyed it quite a bit actually. It was funny and I enjoyed most of the author's little interruptions(and "Morgenstern's" as well) and immensely enjoyed reading my favorite movie parts(Battle of Wits, Inigo and the Man In Black's Duel, etc.) as well as getting more about Inigo and Fezzik's back-stories and the roles they played in the story.

What I didn't like. Buttercup. Was she annoying or what! Stupid and bleh, I hated her. Now granted her movie counterpart wasn't too remarkable either, but at least she didn't stick out like an annoying sore thumb! One of my favorite scenes didn't exist! The rhyming part on the boat! Yes, yes, I know that the rhyming was included, but it wasn't the same without the exact movie quotes. Complete disappointment! A couple smaller things I didn't like, it wasn't "shrieking eels" it was "sharks" :/ and the marriage("mawage") and the Impressive Clergyman part was smaller(even smaller than it already is!) and the "five greatest kiss" part was in the beginning, which didn't make it seem all that great.

So that's about it. Not as good as the movie, but still enjoyable.
