I think recently many of the movie adaptations stick too close to the source, not because of quality per se, but because of a perceived-familiarity. It creates that feeling that the stage show is just the movie where they pause for songs, instead of feeling like something being thoroughly adapted for the stage.

(Haven't seen 'Honeymoon' to see how it skews so no judgement on that show at all.)
