Not Bad, but missing something

Rating: 8/10 (30 December 2019)

I was so excited to finally watch the second part, being an avid Stephen King Reader, I hoped they'd get things right.
The setting was good, but I did have some issues with the cast.
McAvoy as Bill? Bill is tall, a little shy and clumsy but sweet. He's not short and intense.
Perfectly wrong casting in my view. It was just wrong.
The story veered from the book, but that was fine. The essence was retained, and it wrapped everything up in a neat little parcel.
