Something other than the book, but still something great.

Rating: 8/10 (25 July 2018)

I am a fan of the book, but, in a way, I guess I did appreciate the reimagining of the storyline. I knew all of the riddles from reading the book, and I don't think a strict adaptation could have ever done the book justice, so I appreciated all new riddles that kept me guessing and absorbed with something decidedly different. Some brilliant moments, The Shining scene was just spectacular. I did miss Wade living in isolation before he met his friends in real life, however. Not the book, but still a great movie.
