According to Krakauer the kid was EXTREMELY intelligent with a keen instinct for survival. And fatally-flawed. Whether he is an excellent outdoorsman is the question, because we know how the book ends--that is what's compelling.

I urge everyone to read the book before seeing the movie. The movie will ruin the book--guaranteed.

Movies can’t capture the details & inner thoughts of the characters. Always better to read the books first & then see how badly Hollyweird strayed from the original story line.
