I'll admit, I'm wondering if I didn't like the movie more. I'll freely admit that my enthusiasm for the book was dimmed by the narrator's obnoxious accent, though I wonder if he wasn't chosen to narrate this book BECAUSE of that accent. The main character, Theo, is from Surrey, and a scholar at Oxford, so that posh sound might've fit the author's vision best. In any case, it didn't work for me.

Still, I found the ending to be too...clear, somehow. Too precise. The film leaves the ending much murkier, less comforting, and that suits me better with my apocolyptic fiction.
