Hatchet Vs Story

Decent Essays
I think that Hatchet does a better job of telling the story. I believe this because. in the book the bear was eating berries and left Brain alone.It stated in the book chapter 7 that “The bear made no move to hurt you, to threaten you. It stood to see you better, study you, then when on its way eating berries.” But on the movie the bear attacked Brain and Brian killed the bear.Because the bear attacked Brian more than one time. That’s why Brain killed the bear. Than in the book when the plane comes and does not see Brian,Brian wants to commit suicide because the plan did not see him. It states it in chapter 13 “Still there on his side and the sun came up and when he opened his eyes, he saw the cuts on his arm, the dry hated what what he

    I believe that “Hatchet” does a better job telling the story more than ¨A cry in the Wild. I believe this because, they had more imagination to the book more that the movie. They had a moose in the book, the part where the blond haired man kissed Brian’s mom in the wagon. Brian had a friend named “Terry”. When Brian and Terry went to the park to play a pretend game like they were lost.…

    I believe that “A cry in the wild”does a better job than the novel Hatchet. I think this because A cry in the wild explains what happened way better than the novel Hatchet. For an example when the pilot had a heart attack the movie made it look like he was in very bad pain but in the novel Hatchet it didn't even sound like he was hurting. Also the movie uses way more foreshadowing and imagery. Like when Brian throws his hatchet across his shelter it made sparks.…

    One reason proving Brian turns into things to get away from people is, in the story it said “Brian knew the answer from the question, but the teacher never called on him so he didn’t even bother to raise his hand.” Then moments after that he turned into a frisbee to get away from people because they were ignoring him. This shows that, Brian is so hurt from being ignored, he turns into things so people can’t ignore him. In addition, when Brian turns into things no one notices not even people sitting right next to him. This shows how much people ignore him and how lonely he is.…
