Well, our school nurse said that she saw on Good Morning America, or the Today Show...something like that...that they gave a review of the movie. They said the movie is very mild compared to the books.
Parents go see the movie first, think it's okay and allow their kids to see it. Then, the kids want to read the books and that's where it gets bad. Like I stated earlier, there are 3 books and each book gets deeper and deeper.

The movie has been dumbed down to fool kids and their parents in the hope that they will buy his trilogy where in the end the children kill God and everyone can do as they please.
I wish that I could copy/paste what is posted on snopes but unfortunately, the site does not allow it. I strongly urge you to read what is written. JMO from a narrow minded uptight luke-warm Christian.
