One of the best Stephen King adaptations ever. The movie is great in every scene, and in every way.

Ths movie is RACIST.
It features a "Magical Negro" main character, which King has used before.
It's a trash movie.

It's a trash movie.
That's just your opinion. Ebert, IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes think otherwise.

The Magical Negro thing is gross and the reviews you mentioned had to be too racist to understand they are.
The stereotype is used over and over in movies and it just horrible.
Steve King had a heinous magical negro woman in the Dark Tower, and she was in a wheelchair, and mentally defective.
So that's a crippled, retarded, magical negro.
I could never read another of his books after that.

I'm surprised you haven't heard of them.
Their political affiliation aside, they have made some excellent skits for comedy central. Too much to post now. Check out their channel.

I don't have cable only internet so I haven't watched comedy center in years, so that's why.
Did you ever hear of Michell and Webb from the UK?
I used to love their show.

Neither do I! I gave up the cables ages ago. I get my TV content via antenna (that's another subject)
I was talking about their YouTube channel.
No I haven't heard of Michell and Webb… sounds interesting. I'll check them out.
As long as you check out Tim and Eric! Heard of them?
Might have to continue this tomorrow.

The Tim an Eric stuff is not my type of humor.
That Mitchell and Webb Look was a UK comedy show and I used to love it. I am not sure if there's a way to find episodes.
It was very funny, to me.

A mile is 5280 feet.
When it becomes 5280 movies to watch then it will be on the list.
