The Dark Tower

There were a lot of complaints about this one. I read the book and I personally believe this was the best book written by Stephen King. Down the years ,there has a been a lot of talk of the possibility of a movie being made based on this book, and my friends and I used to talk about who could possibly play the role of the gunslinger and not once did we ever think of the gun slinger as a black dude.

Maybe that’s one area the movie makers got it wrong but personally I felt the problem was a lack of time to develop the characters and the story line well enough. It just felt empty. I remember even now the deep emotions raised in me by the novel but not once did I feel that way watching the movie.

Was it the directors fault? The cast director? Or the script writer?

I don’t know but for the sake of we the fans, this movie should be done again or the sequel should make amends because this book is in the realms of the “Lord of the rings “,”Harry potter”, Ian Fleming’s  "007”, to just go down like that.
