Monday Musing - What Movies, have you thought, gave a good representation of their Books?

The Hunger Games  My top vote is Hunger Games, parts of that movie were even better than the book.

The HelpThis book was fantastic and the movie stayed pretty true to the book.
The NotebookI enjoyed both, Ryan Gosling for the movie and the plot for the book.

Ella EnchantedI loved both - a great book and a cute movie that didn't have much to do with each other.
Confessions of a Shopaholic (Shopaholic, #1)A funny book series, not so much after book 3....but the movie was OK- I wanted more.  Maybe if they had stuck to the book and not Whoknows what they stuck to.
Gone With the Wind One of my favorite books and favorite movies...they are different, but both can stand on their own.  A bit like the first Jurassic Park.
 The books were good and OK, but I really hated the movies.

 This movie was pathetic and didn't capture the book at all.
This one on the other hand was fantastic and so much better than the book.

What do you think?  I really could go on and on and on and on.....
