Review of The Dark Tower (2017) by Bfoore90 — 09 Aug 2017

Saw it last night, it wasnt bad. It was mostly okay. Elba and McConaughey were damn good, McConaughey really brought a scary charm to the role. Other than that, it felt condensed and incompletE. It would've helped the script if the movie had only one writer instead two writing teams amounting to a total of five writers, That would have allowed the script to be more focused and have the really good stuff fleshed out.

There was also just a lot of points were stuff was obviously cut out, leading to the movie not taking enough chances and quite a few holes. With King, playing it safe usually hurts an adaptation more than it helps.
