The movie was adapted by the book's author (which can still make for a bad adaptation, I can grant you that much), but yeah no I've found the exact opposite to be true, and I feel like most film critics/theorists would agree.
Good performances are an important component of the end product (although I would argue far from the most important even still), but actors are often only as good as the directors know how to handle/direct them toward the performance they want.
