Featured review
It's so bad I want to give it a zero, but that's not possible, so I give it, a ONE.
It's not even like, The Room kind of bad. This is just like...BAD bad. Seriously. They re-wrote SO much of the original story line that I don't think you can even say this is based off the book anymore, more like loosely based at best...as someone who's read the book and loved it (Im a big Stephen King fan), I cannot say the same for the show. It was bordering on unbearable to watch because of how much they absolutely butchered the story line and characters backstories. It jumped around so much and so many important details and dialogue were omitted that the show may be even more confusing to those who haven't read the book. Every character was a diluted version of the original, much dialogue that was crucial to the overall plot was swapped out for garbage lines that were not cohesive to the story whatsoever. Acting was bad, background music was worse. Not sure whose idea it was to have music playing in almost every single scene, but at some points it literally sounded like spa music??? Paired with Whoopie Goldbergs dookie acting as mother Abigail (literally killed the character and NOT in a good way either) and everyone else's dookie acting for that matter, and my lord I have no words other than this show shouldn't have been put out for public viewing. The ONLY redeeming qualities of this series are the special effects and cinematography, and the way they portray Randal Flagg, Alexander Skargård was a good choice for the character. But that's it. 0/10 not worth the watch unless you wanna be sorely disappointed and dare I say pissed off lol.
