Fanny's+Comparison

The book is better than the movie.

The book is better than the movie because it has more detail. As I was watching the movie I was really upset because the movie had left out so much detail. There was no fight between Ares and Percy which was the whole purpose that the movie was SUPPOSE TO BE about. This made me really mad because without Ares stealing little Master Bolt, there would be no meaning to the whole series. Instead the movie showed Luke stealing the Master Bolt, who is Ares's companion, Luke helps Ares, he does not do all the work by himself! Instead of having the main fight with Ares and Percy, the movie shows alot of unessesary fights. Even though the movie showed the fight with Hydra, there was no point of it, plus it had nothing to do with the whole book. Hades is the person who summoned it to get the lightning bolt from Percy. In the book, it makes more sense because Hades thinks that Percy stole his Helm of Darkness but it was not Percy, it was Ares, who used the Helm of Darkness, made himself invisible and then stole the lightning bolt because he wanted to be king of the gods and make Zeus and Poseidon have war, not knowing that he and his companion Luke had stolen the bolt instead. The lightning theif book is way better than the movie because of all the detail it has. Therefore the movie and the book have no comparison because the book blows the movie away!

The book has better characters than movie because the movie leaves characters out. I was hoping to see Enchidna and Chimera but the movie did not even talk about these characters. It was like they never exsisted! In the book, it described Enchidna and Chimera briefly and very well because while I read the description it was like I could almost imagine them. Also the movie left out Ares, which was probably the 4th main character in the book. So why shouldn't he be in movie too?
