Review of The Ghost and the Darkness

I've had the pleasure many years ago of reading the original story which was called "The Maneaters of Kuhoman" (please excuse the spelling as I don't have the book in front of me.) The real story is so much more exciting and fast-paced that it seems strange the movie wasn't able to reproduce that excitement. While the story was exciting in parts I found it tended to draw out too much between interesting scenes. If anyone out there really has the patience to read a good book the original story will blow you away compared to this watered-down version.
