Brilliant screen play. I like the changes that were made to bring the film to life, especially in Jo's character.

PG. 117 - "It's hot."

⭐️⭐️⭐️

good

Meh. Disappointing honestly. I only recommend it for nostalgic reasons, there’s no Aunt Meg, Jo’s parents are still around and there was really no heart. I guess that’s how screenplays are but this fell flat compared to the movie. I know screenplays are rough drafts but I’m glad they made the changes they did in the actual movie. (physical Book)

The screenplay the movie was adapted from, how could I not love? The movie is pretty much spot on, except the dad doesn't go flying out of the storm shelter in the beginning. Michael Crichton was honestly just a literary/ cinematic genius.

It was good! The book is way different than the movie!

Me llevé una sorpresa cuando empecé a leer el libro, ya que estaba convencido de que era una novela, pero resultó ser un guión cinematográfico. He escrito guiones de cine, pero nunca leí uno, y tengo que decir que, si te gusta el cine, es algo alucinante.
La historia es buena, logra trasmitir la pasión de los personajes por su profesión (estudiar los tornados), y logra que uno se meta dentro de la historia ofreciendo escenas muy visuales y bien descritas. Recomendada 100% para todas las personas amantes del cine, y sobre todo para los que nos gustan los fenómenos meteorológicos.

I'll never be a fan of reading books in the form of screenplays, but I really did enjoy the story.

One of my favorites - especially the movie.

You may be getting tired of me saying Crichton's books are better than the movies. Too bad. Same thing is true here as all of his books (well, except that one book...).

One of my favorite movies, it is interesting to see what Crichton and his then-wife wrote compared to what was filmed. Jo motivation in the movie makes more sense than in this manuscript, and I LOVE Rusty played by Phillip Seymour Hoffman. That said I think I like Crichton's dryer humor than what was filmed.
