Nice review! After reading the Book(s) the first movie was a bit of a disappointment. Looks like this one will be truer to the story.

The book is far too detailed for a single film. No way it could capture all that the book has. Two films is certainly a better approach, but if part 1 doesn't light it up at the box office, part 2 would be in serious jeopardy and we may never see it. Hoping that we do.
As per my usual Modus Op., I'll see it on 4K disc. Haven't stepped foot in a cinema since The Fifth Element.

Anxiously awaiting the 4K disc release. Hope it doesn't take too long.
Thanks for the replies gents, I've been hoping for positive reviews on this release.
