Pale imitation of better films

Rating: 1/10 (10 July 2003)

Three words: "Cool Hand Luke." Same film, done better, done earlier. For that matter, is this film any better than other Steven King "novelettes" such as "Stand By Me"? All in all, it probably ranks a 6 or a 7, but since people on this site have lost their minds as regards this film, I give it a 1 in one man's attempt at sanity.
