[Wani Dogale · Rating 5 out of 5]

I thought the movie was great and entertaining to watch.

In society base, i think the strongly implies on fixing hunger, friendship, and emotions. The main character in this movie had friends with him the whole journey which kind of proofs that their friendship is close. The main character reminds me a little more of Steve Jobs. He is a very smart man that comes up with creations of his own just like the character in the movie.
In realism, i think that greed, means a lot to the story. I think that both the main character and the tall skinny enemy of his have greed. Destroying the whole city with food is obviously a sign of greed and trying to destroy all the food creatures and possibly having to benefit out of that is also a sign of greed.
In literature base, i think that this movie is protagonist- disorganized, adult innuendos, Biblical literal and has south park allusion.

This was Israel pick. He won this as a prize for his good attendance for library class each week. He also absolutely loves this movie and has seen it probably 20 times or more. As for the book, I think that he enjoyed it and he definitely had some of the dialogue memorized just from watching the movie. From my perspective, it was confusing to read, hard to understand unless you have seen the movie and not a very good story. It is obviously just written to sell books to kids who love the movie. It's actually called a movie novelization. The kids may love this, but I don't think it will hold much appeal for adults.

It wasn't the best book. But it is a whole lot like the movie. In the book there is a lot of detail. As I read
I could picture it in my head of what was happing because my little brothers watch the movie a lot.
