Les enfants de Timpelbach (2008)
Not like the book.
I've read the book as a kid and most of the details as showed in the movie didn't match the book. I always hoped someone would turn this great story into a good movie but this is just an abomination. I wonder sometimes if the script writer had read the book well enough in order to make it into a movie. I missed lots of the original story and most of the things shown in the movie were not mentioned in the book. So I was really disappointed when I saw this movie. Especially the final fight ended differently from the book. In the book Thomas gives Oscar a real beating something not shown in the movie. I can go on about many of the other parts of the story that were incorrect but it would spoil the mood for those who still want to see this movie. I advice you to read the book since it is still much better than the movie.
