That was a really good concept and well acted story, culminating in a deliberately
unclear and unexplained ending (as it apparently misses out a lot from the book, just to confuse you) and more spinning ships.

It was all a bit shit, really.
Let's be honest.
I've never been able to watch it all in one go because it's just so bloody tedious.

Put it this way. With an old video of it and a pair of scissors, you could
make a really good 45 minute film.

the film wasn't of the book,
in fact both the book and the film were made in parallel, so neither one is more "correct". But the book obviously does have more detail in it.
