Another multiverse with endless possibilities, plus all the creative talents of Stephen King and Ron Howard. Here's a great article on the process that lead to this movie which opened, today, in Canada (https://www.theverge.com/2017/5/3/15528554/the-dark-tower-stephen-king-film-adaptation-explainer). I enjoyed this - how could I not - I have such an appreciation for Idris Elba's talent. The screenplay was tight, the plot interesting. No great surprises- good guys and bad guys. I thought the cinematography and CGI was crisp and clear, which is not the trend in action films (they seem to prefer blurred, high speed images - with this movie, they let us see what happens, which is my preference). I give the film a 7.5 (satisfying) out of 10, and if it does well at the box office expect to see a TV series and more movies.
