Cool. So you guys have seen it. Awesome.
As much as I like it (and I do like it very much) my gut tells me they changed the story quite significantly from the original novel, which I haven't read in years, but I remember key places and people that were left out, and a few name changes. For instance, Mac reads a lot more as an Archie Bunker than what I saw on screen. I almost don't want to reread the first novel in the event I become one of those "the book was better than the movie" people, but now it's like a scientific journey to find the differences.
