Query: The Perfect Mess

The Perfect Storm was a terrific read - factual, intense, and mostly fluid. Where the book does right by the real people depicted, the movie goes overboard (sorry) with melodrama and invention. Characters are added out of whole cloth, plot lines are cut and pasted into each other, until the movie ends up with only the barest resemblance to the book. Now, I'm not one to say that every movie based on a book has to be an exact replica - but this thing was a well-documented true story! The acting is overwrought, the plot is jumbled, and the true stories that made up the meat of the book are sliced and diced into a typical, easy-to-digest bland Hollywood "adventure" movie. George Clooney deserves kudos for not trying (too hard) to lay on the [phony] Boston accent that the rest of the cast has poured on thick.
