❝I don't believe that anyone is truly Good or truly Evil.❞

I adored the books when I was younger, so I was pretty excited for a film adaptation. But whoever wrote the script clearly didn't read any of the books, because they turned a heartfelt story into just another cringey teen fantasy film, and I got major Descendants vibes from this. The characters were so different, vital plot points were changed or left out entirely, and though this was two and a half hours long, it still felt way too short for the amount of material stuffed into it. The only saving graces were the costumes and performances from Charlize Theron and Michelle Yeoh. I wouldn't recommend watching this film if you're a fan of the books, because it's severely disappointing.
