I watched & laughed & wheeze my way through the show. It wasn't an easy waltz considering the fact that it's not totally according to the book. But then certain dialogues are the exact words of the book. I won't say which is nicer. Both have their own aims.

The thing is, what it considered as a children section, deserves much exploring intellectually for adults as well. The movie is definitely about family values. It's the typical cruel-parent-estranged-child-made-up Happy Ending. Credits to Hero Charlie of course! Fanatic father so insane son. Both experts in their own fields. Both possess absurb outlook about life. Genius is linked to insanity genetically? Inheritary Parental Mindsets? Its worrying to know the elites, creme la corp, whom we place our trust in, are the ones who are in need of pschological attention more than anyone of us.

I definitely feel I'm smart enough for myself. But nobody can be an island. So I'm leaving my trust in others' hands. What if that person turn out like Brain of Pinky&TheBrain? What social trend. It's unsettling. It's the way we operate. So much for being civilised. So much for being superior creatures.

And all that for learning literature. I've never watched a show properly after learning what I did.
