Review of The Dark Tower (2017) by Matt Singer for ScreenCrush — 01 Aug 2017
Even when the movie around him is total garbage nonsense, it is fun to watch Idris Elba; the way he walks, the way he stares at people with eyes blazing with intensity. He is an ideal action hero. He looks like the coolest man who ever lived in his fantasy Western garb, and he moves with a rare combination of grace and force, like the greatest possible combination of Gene Kelly and Chow Yun-Fat.
He makes an amazing Gunslinger. Sadly, he’s trapped in a not-very-good Gunslinger movie.
