★★½☆☆
Although Mike Flanagan is one of my favourite directors today, I feel that he could have done better with this film.
Perhaps he tried very hard to please both fans of Stephen King’s book and fans of Kubrick’s film, sacrificing his own vision on how the film could have been presented I believe.
Despite that, I still enjoyed every minute of It, the film does a good job at revisiting the Overlook Hotel.
I wished there were less fantasy and more horror elements in the film though.
