My 2 cents

I read the book before seeing the movie (a good thing for King adaptations). The casting of the 4 main leads was very good. The only casting I didn't like was Freeman. I think this movie had a good first half and stuck true to the book, but failed in the second half. It is frustrating to see that espically for one of the Darry Books IT (which takes place around the events of Dreamcatcher before the 4 were born and right after the boys found Duddits) & Insomnia. I would love to see HBO pick up some of King's works and do them well (The Stand maybe).
