![]() ![]() I will re-watch the film in a few years and re-access my initial review. I haven't rewarded it with the 5 star rating as The Shining wasn't an initial 5 star rating for me. The version I watched was the DC 1080 cut and I will say it's an incredible film. The filmmaker stays respectful to both King and Kubrick which wouldn't have been an easy feat considering King's dislike for Kubrick's film. ![]() Most sequels would revisit The Overlook with a new family, but not Stephen King. The book was good as it pushed past the closed doors of the original and managed to stay relevant. I honestly feel this film will grow into a cult gem like its predecessor. The film is close to the books story-line but is also respectful of the Kubrick masterpiece The Shining. Doctor Sleep is one of those rare sequels that work. ![]()
