Glad to see that we think alike. I think it's no wonder that the first movie worked better than the second. Not that the first half of the book is bad, far from it, but it's much more straightforward. And the second half gets awfully dark near the end. With chapter "V" at the pinnacle - I haven't seen any of the adaptations try to capture that part of the story!
