Honestly it isn't as bad as people kept saying, and keeping in mind that I have not read the books. I'm just fan of Idris Elba and I enjoyed Mathew McConnahay as a bad guy. There are a few incoherent moments but it's a fun movie worth watching if you have the time. You could tell there are gaps which could have been handled better for sure but it's a fun action packed movie with a few twists. But it should have been darker and not PG13 that's for sure.

I actually liked the way the movie was, and yeah, it's not identical to the book series, but come on - what movie is? Elba made a fine gunslinger, and McConaughey did well as a villain. Sure, some bits could have been executed better, but it's not as bad as people have been saying it was. I set off to see the movie expecting to be disappointed, but ended up enjoying it quite a bit.

I thought Roland would be more a Clint Eastwood than an Idris Elba?? What are they thinking? Daniel Craig would be a good fit.

Stephen King's best work, gets a watered down adaption. That feels like the director and screenwriter, both never even read the books. Roland (Idris Elba) in the books is obsessed with getting to the Tower. Here he only cares about revenge on the Man in Black (Matthew McConaughey) who killed his More

To everyone who's trash talking his film, loosen your sphincters guys. In the tradition of The Neverending Story, this move is excellent. I haven't read the books, and never will, so I don't frankly care how different the movie is. Why should anyone?

My advice: Don't be a grow More

**If we often think that a movie doesn't need to have sequels, this case is the opposite: this movie should have been thought of as the beginning of a franchise of several movies.**

As far as I could tell, after some reading, this work of cinema was based on a work by Stephen King, composed of a More

I’ve not read a lot of Stephen King books, but one which I read and loved was _The Gunslinger_ which is the first book in _The Dark Tower_ series. In 2017 a movie adaptation came out and was named after the series. Star More
