I was annoyed at some of the story changes they make in the movie, in my mind unneccessarily.
But both are fine entertainment. Not to be taken as anything more.
I pretty much grew up reading things like Chariots of the Gods, so this sort of genre is great brain candy to me. And I've loved how, over the years, the things that were 'explained' in Chariots have since been actually explained by further exploration... and reading about them as the scientific story unfolds (a) decade(s) after I read the book is highly entertaining...
