#firestarter
Just watched the new remake of the firestarter. And man, It was not good. I was hoping theyd do something different cause the original one from the 80s with drew barrymore was a shitty story too. They basically kept to the same beats from that movie, and I suppose it’s probably true to kings book, which I didn’t read, but we all know that king is a shitty story teller. He’s a great writer and can come up with amazing premises, but his endings always suck. they are always just a letdown and this one is kinda the same. Not as bad an ending as the 80s movie. That was a convoluted mess with horse stables and george c scott posing as a maid or something… lol so dumb lol this ended ok in comparison, but like it’s just such a great premise and the possibilities are endless and this is the only thing they can think of? To basically rehash the same story from the 80s? Idk. Just seems like a tired plot, that they should have had fun with, and this wasn’t fun or scary or cool. Just felt dated. CGI was pretty lame. Overall it felt like it was a tv movie, nothing in the production that makes it stand out in any cool or innovative way. Very meh
