An engrossing potboiler ... if you don't think too hard. But when you need a pot-smoking Lez Zeppelin-enslaved swamp rat-with-a-brain to plead your case, you call the pitch-perfect Susan Sarandon.

Mindless, non-taxing fun, especially if you haven't read the book.

It twists and turns in all the expected places, and almost never rises above the ordinary.
