I recently saw the movie, then read the book and watched the movie again. I think the director did a fair job at recreating the book, though probabaly gave into the feeling that he had to please the audience more than stick to what the film really should have been. The psychedelic montage of Charly on the motorcycle probably pleased audiences and helped to even draw a few people in tht normally wouldnt have watched a movie like this. However, I think he did, at times, hit the nail on the head by showing how people treat someone that is mentally retarded, the sort of coming of age, and how a mentally retarded person acts differently than a more intelligent person. It is a comparison movie that strayed some from the book, but was still a very good movie. I highly recommend it to everyone. If nothing else, watch it to laugh at the oh-so-60s sequences and get a laugh, and in the long run, you'll learn something about yourself along the way.
