I found the book exceptionally great.
I found the movie a big disappointment... Esthetically speaking, it's ugly. All what's in the book could have paved way for nice photography. It would not have harmed the movie. Instead, I had the impression of watching a B-series science fiction film. The book would have deserved better.
I know that some people object that the style was intentional on part of the filmmaker. Well, the result is something that aged quickly and seems ridiculous now.
Read the book, it has not aged ! This movie should not be an excuse for not reading an exceptional work of art...
