Thoroughly enjoyed it!!

Rating: 9/10 (25 June 2007)

I've never read a Stephen King novel (I don't read many novels anyway!)but I've enjoyed many of the movies based on them. I can't say whether or not the book was better but I can say I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. There were many Stephen King based movies that have disappointed me so I'm glad to say this isn't one of them. It may have been a bit slow at times and I wouldn't call it terrifying but if you like Stephen King stories, you should see this movie. There are a couple of nice twists too! John Cusack is one of may favorite actors of his generation, he shows a wide range of emotions and does it very well! My vote would actually be 8.5/10 but since I couldn't pick 8.5, I picked 9. I hope that more Stephen King novels are made into movies and done as well as this one. The special effects were very good too! One thing I'd like to say to the people that give this movie 1 or 2 out of 10, you're in the minority. If you love Stephen King's novels, the movies will probably never live up to your expectations so rating the movie so poorly doesn't serve anyone. Take a couple of days to cool off before you vote!
