Normally, people say watch the movie before reading the book, because the book is always so much better.

I found the reverse to be true in this case. Don't get me wrong, it was an entertaining read, but I definitely liked the movie better, it seemed to have more of a plot. The book itself wasn't bad, but I found it a little tedious to get through, maybe because it treated the law school as a complete joke. Oh, I know, it's the way it was meant to be, but it was a little irksome.

Other than that, the plot was fun, if unrealistic!
