I’m a huge fan of the books and was looking forward to this, even though it’s a Sony picture and they’ve been uh... yeah, lately. Finally watched it this week, avoided seeing at theaters since I heard it was hot garbage.
If you can ignore the incredible novels that inspired it, the movie is actually pretty solid. It’s full of plot holes and thin characters, but that’s to be expected with a project like this. Was amazing seeing Idris as Roland, with some awesome gunplay. Jake was good too, but the movie seemed more about him than Roland. Would have been nice to see Eddie and Susannah somehow.
