Hard to match the book, but it does well enough. Was disappointed with how significant moments from Ishiguro's novel were altered and/or excluded, but what is here is excellent. Great acting across the board especially - Anthony Hopkins does an amazing job as Mr. Stevens.

I felt the romance angle was undercooked. Nothing happens between them until the book scene, more than an hour into the movie.
Having said that, all the other stuff around that is great.

This is by far my favorite Anthony Hopkins performance. Sure, the glittery performances are the ones that tend to resonate more (like his performance in Silence of the Lambs), but I think it is so hard to nail a character that requires a subtle and understated touch. The character says so little and so much at the same time. The movie may be a bit slow for some, but for those with patience the reward is amazing. I could have scene Hopkins and Thompson interact on a screen all day long. I also very much enjoyed the commentary on the differences between classes - I thought that was extremely well done.

There is something vulgar about carpe diem.
