Review of The Dark Tower (2017) by Arcubal — 23 Aug 2017
If you want a scene-by-scene interpretation of the book: forget it. But if (like me) you appreciate the creative translation that is necessary to make a movie work, than you'll be very pleased. Way more engaging, tightly plotted and solidly acted than anything in the book (which was even to King's admission a mess) the movie also boasts a very impressive characterization by Elba and McConaughey while boasting a solid single story (if you don't like open endings) while still allowing for the sequels to be made.
Everything about this movie was impressive. Must see.
