Kite Runner: The Movie vs The Book

Recently we watched the movie Kite Runner in class. The film was based on the book we just finished reading, The Kite Runner, written by Khaleid Hosseini.
I have seen the movie before but, I thought it was nice to watch it once more after reading the book. The book was much better than I expected, but when we saw the movie I must say it was a dissapointment to me. I wasen't aware of how much of the content from the book that was left out from the film, and there were some parts that I felt should have been included which was vital points in the book.

After all I was pleased with the book, Khaled Hosseini writes well and exciting which caught my attention. Though I know its hard to include every aspect from the book into the movie, and even though they managed to make a film with the mainpoints, I believe they could have added more of the parts from for example Amir's search for redemption in Afghanistan.

  1. I think this is almost always the case. The book is better then the movie. Just because there are so many ways to describe events in the books. But still I think this movie does credit to the book although I see what you mean and I agree with you.
