Query: Characters vs. Action

I just happened to be reading some of these reviews, and it seems to me that those who read ST either loved it or hated it. I loved it. The characters make you want to care about them because they are almost overflowing with personality. You want to get to know them. Johnny Rico could be just about any one of us growing out of the innocence and sometimes aimlessness of childhood to join the ranks of the world we live in. This book is about understanding yourself and the world you live in even though the world Heinlein created may not be exactly like ours. I think that if you read this book and didn't get anything out of it, you weren't reading it.I haven't seen the movie yet, though I read the script and judging by that, I think the people that made the movie were more concerned in making this into an action flick, rather than focus on the people and the motives like Heinlein did. I'm not so sure Heinlein would have been happy with it, but I liked it. : )
