As someone who has never read the book(s?), or even knew they existed until the launch of the film, I am reviewing the film solely on the film itself. I'm finding it hard to find things that I disliked about the film. I found it was well paced. The story gets going quickly without wasting time introducing many different characters. The effects were believable. Line delivery was good. Nothing really cheesy. The movie has some tense and intense scenes. For a major portion of the movie, I had a constant feeling of either nervousness, or anxiety. Lots of portions of the movie left my guests wide eyed with mouths open. The movie isn't scary or especially gory, but a lot of things happen in it where you're just like "Oh gently caress." The sound was good. Clear Dialogue, good dynamics and lots of low bass content. There is a specific scene where a grenade explodes in slow motion that caused my sound system to hit harder in the low bass region than I have ever seen a movie do. One of those "bass drop" descending tone type sounds. Sound volume was nowhere near maxed out, yet that specific scene sucked the air from my lungs, caused the ceiling to move. If you like to play loud, beware of that scene. I could easily see it causing equipment damage. 4/5 is my rating.
