Review of Firestarter

Firestarter (2022)
2/10
Poor interpretation of the old.
30 September 2022
The first one made in the '70s with Drew Barrymore was much better than this piece of crap!

The "captain" the actress, was Never Ever a good actor! Even in her youth she was never believable, her acting very wooden and stoic! Terrible!

And her "new face" from injections and face lifts and the ugly eye surgery isn't attractive at all!

I'd never enjoyed watching her perform, and my thoughts of her haven't changed not one bit! Yuck! She looks horrible! Why can't these actors age gracefully?! Their egos are inflated to beyond measure!

This adaptation or remake really have not improved from the old. Barrymore was a better performer as well.

Typical Stephen King film, boring! Just like his books are, it fizzles out in the end. In my opinion SK's novels are all like this. The author gets flummoxed when nearing its conclusions, he cannot quite close it, the end I mean.

I've read many, if not all of the earlier novels, and always came away unsatisfied, kind of losing its flame.

Starts out well enough and through the body of the story but in the end it's a "phooy!" This film was like that also. Disappointed.
