Query: A great story poorly told

I was really looking forward to this movie because I love the story, but this incarnation provided nothing but disappointment. The story was poorly written and badly told and the only reason the main character wanted to get trees back into the world was so he could score with the good looking girl that did actually have a moral center. The villain of the story was really the only interesting character the movie had and realistically the writers should have had mercy on us and let this remain a half hour television show.
