The screenplay was co-written by Katherine Paterson's son David, and it's actually based on the relationship between him and one of his childhood friends (down to the ending, although apparently in RL it involved lightning). I somehow doubt he'd want to fuck it up.
I understood that the Patersons and the director are distancing themselves from the advertising.
