Read the source material
I thought this was a great film. I'm too lazy to write something profound here but if you get a chance to read the book first please do. Most reviews I've seen seem to recognize that this was adapted from the book, yet none of them really seem familiar with it. This is not a book vs movie argument but rather an acknowledgement of that source material. Really well done film and incredible Sandler performance. Dano is exactly what I imagined for Hanus. There is something that makes this so much better when you know what you're getting into. As this will be on Netflix in a week, we're about to be bombarded with user/critic reviews that won't reflect the quality of the film because their expectations were something profoundly different.
