The truth is, Mark Twain intended for his work to be serious (not to get adapted by Disney). But I've never read the novel, so maybe I shouldn't comment on that. While it seems fairly common for book-to-film adaptations to change things in the process, I've heard that 'The Adventures of Huck Finn' went so far as to change what happened at the end.

My only problems were some parts that were too overly-modernised, its length and how Tom Sawyer was written but other than that this is a worthy film and adaptation. Ron Perlman is suitably brutish, while Jason Robards and Robbie Coltrane come close to stealing the film as the roguish King and Duke. Elijah Wood does a good enough job in what I consider one of his best performances in the title role, while Courtney B.Vance plays Jim with such feeling and finesse he was perfect. Also a decent script, good direction and even better performances. Then there is a wonderful score, very fitting with what was going on on screen. For one thing, it's beautifully filmed, with crisp cinematography and beautiful scenery. As people have pointed out, the film is true in spirit if not in the details to the book, but it is really not bad on its own merits. While not 100% perfect, this is a worthy film adaptation.

If you haven't read Mark Twain's book already, I highly recommend you read it, for it is a truly great and compelling read. Reviewed by TheLittleSongbird 7 / 10 A worthy film adaptation of a great book
