This is How Movies Should Be Made

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

I loved this book and was looking forward to the mini-series, hoping they wouldn't fail like they did with Under the Dome. Once again they took a great book and completely changed the story for no reason. It is a good show, worth watching but be prepared to be disappointed if you loved the book.

I second Mr Reed's review 100%. The show started out great, but turned into a love story about 3 episodes in.

11.22.63, a date that we all know and remember, the day of the assassination of J.F.K, a significant event in the history of the world that has shaped our present as we know it!11.22.63 (the show) is such a beautifully written masterpiece, time travel movies or shows tend to be complicated but this series isn't really, it delivers another point of view on the horrific incident that acquired on 11.22.63, a true artistic work with amazing performances and thrilling episodes that gets better an episode after the other, the series won't stop blowing your mind, and the way it shows the different aspects of the American life in the 60'.Some of its downsides are a kind of a poor screenplay at some scenes, and a bit of exaggeration and overdramatizing at points, you might get bored in some episodes but believe me; it's worth watching the whole thing through, you won't believe the ending!Great show, spectacular performances, very well-written and definitely a must-watch.

I just finished listening to the book last week and was excited to watch the series. I was thinking that since it was 8 episodes they could follow the book 100%, WRONG. My first question was why did it start in 1960, what happened to the other 2 years? I hate how Bill is with him. It was interesting that George/Jake was alone 8n all of it. Adding Bill was like adding an anchor. Sadie and Jake jumped into bed to fast. I enjoyed them taking it slow and her opening up about her past and the broom. Too many "why's, what happened to, etc." I understand it's a long book and you can't compress it all but with 8 episodes it should've been damn near it. I feel as if I'm watching a sequel to a book I never read. Thay always say the book is better and in this case it was. I think I need to listen to the book again to remember why I fell in love with it because right now I feel like I'm in another book.
