Review of The Dark Tower (2017) by Ali B — 05 Aug 2017

Well I was expecting this might be a fail just from the trailers alone. When I first heard of the possibility of the movie I was fairly excited to finally see the story of the 8 books come to life. However that excitement was quickly replaced with doubt when they started the casting and told us they'd replace Roland with a black male...why!? apparently it's all to do with being "progressive" and "politically correct", when I found out the director is a big SJW type I got really worried. I hate when politics get involved in my stories... Yet I still hoped for the best and I like Idris as an actor so I watched the movie anyways. Man was it bad and was I disappointed as hell. The story is a jumbled mess from start to finish, taking little bits and pieces from the novels and creating their own version of a sequel of sorts and it's just all over the place. The acting is even horrible and I am quite honestly very sad with what they've done to one of my favorite books. Hope this director is never allowed to ruin another piece of literature ever again...

I'm never going to second guess myself again, As I knew right from the start I shouldn't have wasted my time and money on this trash, yet I did and I regret it.
