It was fun while it lasted

Alas, in my less than humble opinion the novelization didn't live up to its early promise.  Far too much of it wasn't in the film at all; I understand why it's done, but it makes it more of an alternate history than an actual narration.  Also, I think the differences are in favor of the film--but then, it is an intensely visual movie. 

There are other changes, but I won't spoil.

Depends on how much you enjoy novelizations in general...I'd vote for the movie, though. After all, you can always get the book later if you change your mind.
