I haven't seen it yet, and I won't either, despite being a huge fan of the show. Apparently Shamalamadingdong totally massacred the source material, even without all the casting controversy. Roger Ebert has, if I may paraphrase, a movie with literally no redeeming qualities. Ouch. But I can't say I'm surprised, since for some reason I watched The Happening, which was one of the most awful movies I've ever seen. Anyway, this review from io9 is worth a look because it's pretty funny.
