Negs: Nowhere near as exciting as the novel, which I really enjoyed. Special effects that make you want to cry and laugh at the same time.

Pluses: Unlike Dakota Fanning, young Drew Barrymore is not annoying (when she cries, it makes you feel bad and want to protect/comfort her...as opposed to running away. lol, jk. maybe). Pretty packed cast for a Stephen King movie (usually just one big Hollywood name, two at most).
