Stormbreaker



P4 has been reading the book Storm breaker by Anthony Horowitz and we have watch the movie to compare between the movie and the book I believe that the book was amazing I loved it but the moving is what I describe as cheesy and rubbish.


In the book the main characters it Alex Rider, Herod Sayle, Nadia Rol and Mr grim. Alex is a 13 year old boy that lives with his Uncle Ian rider and Jack the housekeeper. In the movie the main characters are Alex Rider, Darios Sayle and Nadia Rol the movie is about the same with the characters but the way they describe the characters in the book is totally different in the movie.


The book is about Alex rider his parents died in a car crash and he was living with his Uncle Ian rider, Ian rider was a spy working for M16 spy agency he goes on many daring adventures. Alex has to go on a special mission to find out when herald sayle is doing to the storm breaker. He trains with the K Unit in the M16 before he goes out for his adventure to sayle enterprises.


The highlights in the book is when he goes through dozmary mine in pitch black darkness more than 50 meters underground following the footsteps of Ian rider. But in the movie it is just. Alex crawling through a tunnel also when Alex was trapped in a fish tank with a  deadly jellyfish I was scared and hoping he would make it out alive with his zit cream that seemed harmless but got Alex away from the horrible jellyfish.


I prefer the book over the movie it is more exciting and has more detail but the movie does explain who the people are and what they do. The book is great i love how descriptive it is it’s one of those movies that lets you imagine exactly who the character is or where the scene is.


Both the movie and the book are good but the book is definitely the best i recommend this this book for future adventurer’s that like a good action book or movie.
