Have you ever seen a good film adaptation of a book? It seems like most films that're based from a book aren't that good (at least, compared to the book.) Today I watched Asylum. The book was pretty average, so I was expecting the movie to be average too...such a simple plot, even with the "twists", I thought they couldn't get this wrong...and sure enough, it was horrible. Seems I have seen very few movies based from novels that were any good. The only one I can think of that didnt ruin the book at all is Mystic River; no doubt one of the best adaptations, used lots of the same dialogue from the book.
What were some books that became movies that weren't ruined and you enjoyed?
