I read the book, just know that it was written in 2003 and they probably shouldn't have waited so long to make it but cgi tho. Separating myself from the novel here are the positives and negatives: Shrikes voice is quite good. Valentine is a good casting choice. The cgi looks good and happened world building a lot. Tom is quite bumbling which helps drive hesters dislike of him. The music is pretty strong.
Unfortunately there is really poor character development. In cutting this book to make a film they really twisted a lot of the character roles and changed who did what, which in turn affected the flow of the movie. They also eliminated guild tattoos from the movie and made the mayor an idiot, lessened the impact of Valentine's death by taking it away from Hester and by keeping him evil lower his characters depth. Why bother naming bevis if he's in the movie for 10 minutes? Hester has a literal deus ex machina in her hands the entire movie. Ugh.
