Rocky + Fav book and screen adaption

We learned that Rocky has a soft side to animals and people he like. He may seem tough on the outside but he is kind hearted. He may of grown to be the person he didn't want to be, but he will still be the person he is on the inside. I hope to see more development of him in the movie, see him grow and be the person he will want.
I didn't really like the movie, I am more into animation then live action. I like more "adventure" and "mystery" movies rather than something like this movie. But that is okay, I feel like later on the movie will get funnier and very nice. But since I have only seen about 20 minutes, I can not say much. The movie reminded me of Outsiders, because it had the same feel. Just because a child seems strong and wild, does not mean they can be caring and loving on the inside.
I think that if we saw more of the movie, we could see how Rocky is a different from everyone else. He didn't break the guys thumb, because he didn't want to. Making up a white lie by saying "he wouldn't be able to work anymore". He also let him keep his coat, even when the guy begged him to take it. It shows that he wasn't into doing what he did, all he wanted to do is take the money and go, not get into a mess. Later on in the movie, we may see more of this, and see him not take the stuff he doesn't need.

My favorite book is Harry Potter, and for the screen adaption, it was alright. A lot of the characters weren't described as they look in the book, but its hard to fine perfect actors. It also missed many details. One of the biggest details is how Voldemort died. In the movie, Voldemort died like a demon, he turned to ash and was never seen again. While in the book, Voldemort died like a human, he had a corpse and everything. This is much better that what happened in the movie. It shows that no matter what, Voldemort was a human from the beginning.
Also, how they showed Dumbledore was wrong. In the book Dumbledore was sweet and kind. He cared for his students and wouldn't even yell at them. He talked to them in a soft voice. While in the movie he would yell at them and get angry. It is very different and for the people who only watched the movie get a different character out of him.
