I now watched it.

The movie is not the book turned into a film, it catches just some basic lines of thoughts that the book examines in depth in many historic examples, and melts these into a package that comes over as one of the contemporary typical warning films we have had in recenbt years. Actually that is not a bad thing, for the warnings are necessary, and basing in real facts. But it does not compare to the book. The book, while easy to read, is moch more in-depth, and thorough.

Many chapters of the book do not get even mentioned in the movie.

Conclusion: you do not know what the book is when having seen the movie, you can already realise that when checking the content page of the included chapters at the review page of American Amazon. Reading the book is far more recommendable than seing the movie. In school notes: book: A+, film: C
