Yes, both are OK to use, but the first is the better one to use.

so....as is used in negative sentences, while as.... as.... is used in affirmative ones.
So, the movie is not so interesting as the book would be grammatically more correct. |

| but i think there is difference between as.....as and so......as .i mean as.....as can be used in affirmative & negative sentences but so.....as should be used only in negative ones so don't hesitate and use as.....as to be in the safe side ....Thanks |
