Susan,
I wouldn't worry about what the movie list says, there are always
going to be people who nit pick like Pip said.
Anyone who has seen any of the previews or commercials can see that
they have taken some dramatic license with some scenes but the overall
vibe for me seems to be true to the spirit of the text.
I am going to a midnight showing tomorrow and I can't wait!!!
