A review by bartlebies
Big Fish by Daniel Wallace

3.0

I think the film succeeds where the book fails, which is not something I say lightly. Big Fish is one of my favorite movies and it is entirely because of the tone - a tone that the book never quite achieves. I guess I'm just glad we got a movie so that the big fish stories in this book (many of them bastardized for the film) could be shared to a wider audience.
