Review of Dolan's Cadillac (2009) by Kyle L — 19 Apr 2011

Another good Stephen King adaptation and one of the best Stephen King films since The Shining. Dolan's Cadillac tells the story of a young teacher who witnesses the death of his wife in the desert and after he witnessed his wife's death he intends to avenge his wife's death by thinking of several ways on what he will do to Jimmy Dolan. This is one of the greatest Stephen King adaptations since The Shining. I find this film to be very interesting. I heard about this film and so I decided to check it out and I was amazed when I saw it. The story of the film is really dark and deep as well and the film itself is closer to the short story. Everything was really good from the start to the end the whole movie is really suspenceful, creepy and stunning as well. While the story is dark and deep the climax of the film is really dramatic and it is really creepy. Anyways the film itself doesn't have some scares and the violence isn't really gory it was just fine but the performances of Wes Bentley and Christian Slater really stunned me. The scene when Wes Bentley panics when several cars were gonna go pass by and he panics and places the detour signs in the road after he traps Jimmy Dolan in the hole was really good he knows how to act and he is one of the best actors in movie history. Christian Slater was really talented as well for his performance as the mobster Jimmy Dolan. The way Christian Slater screamed for his freedom in the scene when the car falls into the hole and Robinson starts to bury him was really good and he was good in that scene he knows how to act as well. Stephen King has bring us another good adaptation based on his short story and his stories are really good and he is extremely talented in the horror genre. Anyways I would give this film an 8/10 because the plot of the film is dark and deep. The climax of the movie is really dark, stunning, suspenceful and creepy.

. The performances between the two men (Wes and Christian) were really nice and the movie is really dramatic and scary as well.
