I know *exactly* what you mean. I read the book last summer with a similar conclusion. Although, I'd have to say, I might actually like the movie better. (gasp! I know - I *always* like books better, except this time!) I just loved the characters in the movie, and while the book is charming and fun, it lacked the...vibrancy? of the movie version for me. And I did not like Buttercup's Baby.
And now I feel a strange urge to watch the movie again, for perhaps the 475,628,219th time. :D
