If you're a 14 year old boy then you may really enjoy this, otherwise probably not much. The writing was abysmal. This is perhaps Matthew McConaughey's poorest performance to date. Idris Elba had little to work with but was charismatic. The plot is contrived and lacks engagement. Most of the action does not satisfy. Overall it is disappointing and rather boring, but with some impressive special effects and music. Barely worth watching and almost entirely forgettable.

Known for books so thick they're better at blocking atom bomb radiation than a 50s icebox in a George Lucas film, Steven King brings us his biggest, baddest tale of all: the Dark Tower--a series of cyclopean tomes that, when lined up, can be seen from the International Space Station dwarfing the Great Wall of China. Yet, though panned by viewers and critics alike, I was surprisingly indifferent to the Hollywood re-imagining and its rampant CG. Idris is Idris, Elba is Elba and things happen.

My grandpa threw this on and wanted someone to watch it with. Man... This really didn't do anything for me. Then again, it is a 90 minute film adaption of 8 books, all of which I practically loved. I guess I shouldn't have expected much. It's fairly well paced and Elba is fine, but McConaughey is miscast and the story really isn't all intriguing, especially if you've read some of the books. A huge disappointment. Go read the books instead. They’re crazy and brilliant.

From an objective standpoint, maybe The Dark Tower is just an incredibly mediocre action movie, with a slow roll, and a bad script. But as a fan of the books, this is an atrocious attempt at adapting one of the most expansive and awe-inspiring serires of all time. King's magnum opus reduced to a B-movie feeling summer blockbuster. But to be objective to people who didn't read the book, this is a little higher of a rating than I would have thought to give it.

King has never been very picky with who he allows to adapt his books, so long as he gets a paycheck. "The Dark Tower" is a greasy, slimy perversion of an adult dark fantasy story King wrote some thirty years ago that Hollywood jammed into the mold of "The Hunger Games" and "Divergent." It's the now tired YA rendition of special teen saves the world from magic crap. It's like watching a toddler jam the wrong letters into one of those wooden alphabet puzzles, it's just all wrong.

This is not good, really really generic and the editing/pacing is terrible (and then this happened,and then this happened...). Some of this is the screen writers problem,but other parts make me question whether King is a good writer at all. I also hate characters who use poorly defined magic with no rules or restrictions,because it's lazy writing.'dris does a good job,McConaughy is phoning it in.Worst of all,I'm middle aged and don't want a kid character invented as my POV character

A turd that gives no one anything to be excited for. It feels so generic and rushed you wouldn't think it actually comes from source material with depth and character. Ka-tet and ka are never mentioned but shining and shine are because I guess the director had a stroke and forgot which Stephen King movie he was adapting after the first act. Jake is the lead and gets all the development (and even that's shallow) while Roland and the Man in Black are seemingly just there to vomit exposition.

I went into this forcing myself to see it separately from the books. I need not have worried because this is a far cry from any epic beginning. It feels like a super expensive TV pilot. There is the loose plot of the Tower, but characters, stories, places and the sheer magnitude has been replaced by a silly showcase for a few scenes. The movie would have been far better served by being a three-hour walk through the desert to set up the scale. They should stop making these.

I've been waiting for this movie for 25 years, and in a way it's a relief that it sucks this bad. If it had been just kinda meh, I'd have to try and work out how it related to the novels. As it is, I can just write it off as a Masters Of The Universe remake by way of The Neverending Story and forget about it.

Fortunately, not being familiar with the source material spared me from having any expectations to dash. Having said that, this, though competently made, is incredibly "meh" offering a fantasy world that feels incredibly derivative and generic - the kind of genre mash-up routinely shown in the pages of 1970's Heavy Metal magazines. Not exactly the kind of thing one expects given the talent involved. Maybe King's fantasy world is now just too old for a medium that's been there & done that.

a wizard from a far out land, with powers well enormously, he simply waved his evil hand, and people fell, unconsciously. He heard of one who'd found a way to overcome this sorcery, hunted him down through night and day, and finally found him: It was me. Aghast, his waving hand went idle, he bitterly began to weep. He grasped, that since the opening title i'd been already fast asleep.

I may be cutting this too much slack, since I enjoy the fact that a couple of local boys got to make an honest to god proper blockbuster, but I don't think it was all that bad. Sure it plays like a dark, humorless B-movie version of Last Action Hero, but it didn't offend me, Then again I haven't read the books, so this could be the equivalent of making a Last Action Hero-styled adaptation of Lord of The Rings for all I know.

The Dark Tower is a boring, thinly plotted movie that consists of 90% exposition and 10% bad action scenes. A couple of good actors are wasted, a bad child actor is forced down our throats, characters are too shallow to care about, poor special effects are frequently present, and the whole thing is such a mess that it makes you wonder if a much longer cut was planned, deemed too dense or confusing, and this hacked-up 95-minute version was released in hopes of just making back some of the money.

Having not read any of the books in this case, I still felt like there was something missing here, including a lot of lore. And for someone called a gunslinger, toting old west Remingtons, I was hoping for more of a western feel. Overall, the film was entertaining but nothing special.

Flat and dull King adaptation is an ungainly mix of THE STAND and THE SHINING, filtered through the lens of HUNGER GAMES YA dystopia; in trying to serve its multitude of genres and styles, the screenplay never satisfies any of them, casting a deadly pall of blandness across the whole production and leaving a couple of committed performers (Elba and a gleefully hammy McConaughey) hanging in the wind. Taylor is a good youthful hero, but seems out of place here.

Haven't read the books. And the script for this film does little to spark any interest in doing so. McC is super generic here, and Elba more or less acquits himself in spite of the material. Too bad. I really wanted Arcel to succeed with this adaptation and become a big shot Hollywood director.

I never finished the books, since like many others I got sick of them after slogging through the fourth one, so I don't know how faithful this is to the last books, because it sure didn't have a lot to do with the plot of the first four, which barely got mentioned. In this new golden age of television, I don't know whose idea it was to shove a heptalogy (yep, that's what it's called) into a single movie, but this feels like jumping into a new show at the season finale.

To say this film is a disappointment would be a serious understatement. They made it unbearable for fans and, I imagine, perplexing for newcomers. It's a competent film on a technical level, but on a story and character level, it truly fails. Elba was decent. McConaughey sucked. There were one or two action scenes that were good, with the gun choreography and such. It's a mediocre film that I found very frustrating because the books really do deserve better.

I haven't read the books so I can't come at it from that angle. As just a movie it hits enough to be fine, but is flawed. It does come across as incredibly rushed; it would have been nice to see something more fleshed out. But it's not incoherent as it's very easy to understand. It's pretty thin, more depth would have been nice, especially with Roland and The Man in Black, but it's relatively stylish and entertaining. Everyone but the child were pretty good.

Like what the serious fuck was this? This had nothing to do with the books that I read. You can barely call this an adaption. The gunslinger is supposed to be the main character not a sidekick in a teen sci-fi movie. They took something great and made into a standard, boring, clone of teenage bullshit. I should give this a zero out of spite.

I'm not the biggest fan of the novels dropping the series halfway through the 3rd book. Even still this film fails to live up to King's books. Too much happens that isn't explained or given enough detail. The characters are quite bland and aren't like the same characters from the book. The whole thing seems off as it lacks the Western feel, the sense of dread, loneliness, despair, and horror that the books had going for them. The book series deserves the "Game Of Thrones" treatment.

The Dark Tower is an abysmal movie for the most part. It would prove confusing for newcomers and infuriating for those familiar with the Novels. This film is entirely reliant on amazing work from a pitch perfectly cast Matthew Mcconaughey. If a Stand film ever gets made, hopefully the producers will recognize his performance as Walter O'Dim/Randall Flagg.

I haven't read the book so have no personal reference point. However I'm aware of the scale of the book series and this seems to fall short of representing anything close to that. What we get here is a fairly generic action fantasy film. I felt like I was watching that Mortal Instruments movie from a few years back which probably says a lot. If I'm honest, I was intrigued at the bigger picture that is only hinted at here, so it's a shame we aren't likely to get a proper film series out of this.

I really didn't get the motivation behind this movie. You have 2 generational talents at hand (Elba and McConaughey), a hyper-popular book series; go fro a trilogy or at least for a 2.5 hours movie! It felt like a long reel of "Previously in Dark Tower", no character or plot development, no attempt at pacing the story and no build-up. It was just plain bizarre. Sadly, visually it was not bad; this would have worked in a TV-series format better. Note: I read the first 3 books about 20 years ago.

A thoroughly watered down, designed-by-committee, soulless waste of time. King's Dark Tower universe is a baroque and vivid one, but this film retains none of its charm or heart, opting instead for a paint-by-numbers cheap blockbuster. It's not only a dreadful filmgoing experience (boring, poorly acted and visually ugly) but a lazy bastardization of the source material that is clearly made by people who don't give a shit.

The Gunslinger drinking a Coca-Cola® was as unintentionally funny as it was depressing to someone who cares about the state of cinema. This movie also convinced me once and for all that children cannot act, undoing all the good that Room has done for the reputation of child actors. This is a movie that wants to give a sense of global danger, but it doesn't seem to get beyond "there's mild earthquakes in New York®!" There's so much wrong with this movie that just thinking about it makes me sad.

It's mostly stupid fun with a solid performance by Elba, a terrible one by the kid (he kept slipping in and out of being slightly British) and Mcconaughey hamming it up in black shirt with the top two buttons undone like a street magician. I'm not going to go to bat for this movie or anything, but it's fun.

I haven't read the books; I think that's probably beneficial, in so much as you can take this just as its own movie and not worry so much about the politics of source faithfulness. People are at the same time decrying this as generic and incoherent, which are basically polar opposites in this context. It's not incoherent; it's a linear storyline that we've actually seen hundreds of times. Nobody kills it performance-wise but Elba and McConaughey are both fine. I enjoyed it, but what do I know?

At the start, I wasn't that interested because of the super bland colour scheme (I understand that it was supposed to indicate gloom, but they went way overboard for my taste). A few minutes in though, it got deeper and thoughtful. It made me want to reach through the screen and offer advice to the suffering characters. All in all, it was a good movie, but would only recommend you watch it once (because you might be like me and binge watch the same movie over and over).

Sony has struggled so much with storytelling during the 2010s ... Hopefully the studio has figured out who keeps fucking up their movies and has kicked them out and the 2020s will be better for them.

I'd probably have a different reaction if i'd read the books, but not knowing how the story should go, it was all new to me and an entertaining sci-fi fantasy.

It felt like a young adult tv show, one where the boy would have been a misfit pretty teenager girl, and where the gunslinger would have been a pretty heroic teenager boy. I didn't read the books and I still felt like the lore was mistreated or very rushed. I give most of my points for some of the visual polish and some actors' efforts.

A Rough Hodgepodge. Let me preface this by saying I knew nothing about its source material. To some extent, I still don't. The two usually charismatic leads are unlikeable and both feel like they are phoning it in. So, there's absolutely nothing to get behind. Even the action and the special effects seemed a little hackneyed. It feels like an incomplete film, and you just hope there was some good stuff left on the cutting room floor, otherwise, this was a waste of time.

With a good writer and Idris Elba as a dedicated lead, this could have been a mystical John Wick. Instead, the film splits three ways, following a cliche and a walking ham alongside the Gunslinger's failed potential. The fantastical world is never immersive, the plot is watery, and the characters are uninspired. Forgettable.

Slight and lifeless. The kid is quite good.

No, this is not a sufficient movie. Try again. -- I liked the fast-paced beginning, but the typical audience pandering crap ruins the second half.
