  • The Movie Is Better

    When I was reading the Exorcist I thought "this is insanely better than the movie", so I was really excited to read Legion, which is my favorite movie of the two (The Exorcist 2 movie does not exist to me). The book is somewhat good but then the story suddenly goes off track woth Kinderman's constant rambling, like a lot, and after some time comes back to the situation and Kinderman's ramblings make sense. There are many fillers like it throughout the book and though they define Kinderman they're overdone. Some characters really have no place in the book, if they didn't exist in the book there would really be nothing different or changed. Though I do say the movie is better than the book the book does do one thing better and that's the antagonist. There's more detail and motives make more sense. The book is ok, not great. I really really enjoyed the antagonist in both film and book but in the end the movie comes out on top because Blatty removed all the things that were so unnecessary or provided nothing to the story, but some things here and there in the movie will make sense if you've read the book. If you loved The Exorcist then you should really pick this up and give it a go.
