There was so much content here I didn't like, and most of the characters were either really awful, kind of awful, or a stereotype. I actually think the movie made some great changes while remaining a faithful adaptation, and I think I would have had a more positive take on the story if I had only watched that. I can see why this is popular, and I think the parts about the marsh and the wildlife are really nice, but for me it ticked a lot of my "hate this" boxes.
