This is my all time favorite horror novel and Stephen King is my favourite horror writer. I love the way it was close to the book, but I thought didn't really work.
Steaven Weber was OK, but with the scenes when he is insane, he was annoying and acted arrogant. He was nowhere near as good as Nicholson, who was a legend.
I don't why they chose the actor for the part of Danny, which definitely didn't work. In the novel, he was a really mind messing, freaky child. But in this he looked and acted like a gormeless idiot who couldn't act.
Best thing about the film was Rebecca De Morney who fitted the part really well as Wendy. Her character was very close to the novel which was good.
Good filming and OK special effects, but you can tell its CGI.
The rest of the cast were OK. A lot of the seemed too colourful and jolly, I imagined it as dark and covered in shadows.
Sorry Stephen King, but I didn't think it really worked
