Good adaption. A little boring at times but still good.
I’ve seen at school, very dramatic and theatrical. But my teacher was so enthusiastic that I thought it was much more beautiful.
Great adaptation.. Scared the hell out of me as a kid... It's dark, brutal and kinda sad too... Good acting!
It's interesting for its more artistic take on the source. Some scenes are a little difficult to take seriously, though.
Frank Darabont said: “It’s not at all the film I wrote. It's big and loud and blunt and rephrased by the director at every possible turn.”
A fairly faithful adaptation to one of the best novels ever written, but with some parts that are just questionable as to why they’re there.
Decent adaptation of the book, great visuals and acting worth a watch
Awful, cheap looking effects and bewilderingly bad performances fill out a story you already know
Still worth the watch, I quess, but kinda slow and a bit weird..
It feels like watching Frankenstein staged as theater rather than cinema. The cast is strong, But trying to create tragedy is its weakness.
