I love this movie. It’s a beautiful story of a mother’s infinite love for her child. It’s a story of courage and heart.

Excellent interpretation. Does a great job of utilizing the story, and the creative liberties scratch the itches the book leaves you with.

Incredibly written, beautifully acted and disturbingly riveting, this Stephen King adaptation is amazingly underrated.

Don't like King's supernatural stories but this is more a murder mystery. Bates is terrific as usual Believable New England setting and mood

For film fans: it’s like Douglas Sirk adapted a King novel. For others: it’s very melodramatic.

A lot to stomach; some extremely disturbing themes, but mostly handled tastefully and essential to the story. Bates 100% carries the movie.

Solid Kathy Bates vehicle. The book is only slightly better 8/10

I didn't like this when first came out. Was too used to typical Stephen King& thought was long-winded. By itself, it's actually really good.

Strong, emotional tale. Forget that it's a Steven King film, this is a melodrama of the highest order.
