I really enjoyed the movie, it did feel a bit rushed and I could definitely tell that they left a lot out (i have not read the book) but the environment and the idea was very interesting, kind of a mashup of sever different books I have read
The movie looks nothing like the book. O_o.. If i'm not mistaken, i think i saw a flashlight? In the book they didn't know of a movable light.. right? <_< And, in this preview Doon says "I have proof". They didn't tell anyone *spoiler* did they..? O_O Anyways, still looks good. ^^
i think they screwed up the movie cause it looks nothing like the book! and also i dont remember any electricity ecept for lightbulbs and i just got done reading the book today. so i think the movies gonna suck but im still gonna see it just to see how it is!!!!!!
ya i know i read the book like twice and it lookks nothin like the book, maybe just some of it like the moral of the stroy but i don't remember a electronic box
I've been reading this book and suspected they were underground. The reason they don't know they are underground is because they don't know what it means to be above ground or below ground. They known nothing but the blackness beyond the lights. But in the book there is a mention of the girl thinking there must be a tunnel or staircase that leads somewhere to a place filled with light.
dude this doesn't seem like the book at all. Actually it seems like a much more developed plot than the book. I actually dont think the book was that great. I couldn't help but to first think of "the giver" a little bit. Im guessing the movie will be better than the book. You know that is actually possible?
im reading it! just got to the in chapter 16, the singing and its also kinda stupid some words like candles, matches and boats were totally lost and i also didn't knew what egress meant.
The city's built underground so it completely lacks light. And there's nothing really in the darkness, people just get to terrified when they go to look. x.x Not really a spoiler since, that has absolutely nothing to due with the storyline.
Because they thought that the whole world was gonna get blown up by nukes, and they wanted a way to make sure that there would still be people around. Underground seemed to be the best way.
also, there was a huge war going on 200 years before the film; and people were bombing the place. might also have something do do with a meteor or something, I forgot
thanks to this movie, im now a fan of Saoirse

Why was the city built underground anyway?
Potterfan89 3 years ago
it has to do with natural disasters and such. if youre underground theres no chance of getting hit by a tornado or stuff.
