As a huge fan of the book series, this is a very disappointing movie. Fans wanted the actual Dark Tower series. Not some stunted alternate version that has nothing at all to do with the series.

This has all the signs of the typical Hollywood book-to-movie adaptation disaster. Take a series with a devoted fanbase. Slap the name on a generic action movie. Put in a few references to the books "for the fans" and call it good.

No thanks. The Lord of the Rings strayed slightly from the source material, but they did it *RIGHT*! Nobody wanted a fake Dark Tower movie. They wanted a series of movies that at least attempted to stay true to the books.

There is one other thing I have to say to maker of this travesty. It has been said before.

You have forgotten the face of your father.
