Actually. I can understand what you are saying completely. It was very short. And it did jump from place to place lots! But I have not read the book yet. I might like the book even more once I read it ^^
I never read the books so I guess thats why I loved this movie. I actually really like Jim Carrey. It was VERY funny! But I might like the book more if I read it.
I just like the laughs the movie gave me ^^ The Aunt made me laugh to. And that house of hers was sooo scary!
