Life of Pi.
2 of my kids had to read it for school, I was looking for something to read, picked it up, they both said "NO, it's so bad." I thought, whatever, it's a slim volume, short read, how bad can it be?
I want that hour or two back. They were right and I wish I'd never read it.
Never read it, but the adaptation - a.k.a. "Cinematography: The Movie" is an amazing watch as long as you ignore the plot.
And ignore the shitshow of a production
"The movie is good as long as you ignore the movie."
They literally named the part of the movie that they appreciate.
It's so weird, I've heard some people say this and I just don't get it. It's one of my favorite books.
