Cause really weak plot won fright meter and ihorror awards.even acting couldn't saved whole film.
I really liked it. Not the greatest movie in the world, but was good for a blockbuster night.
Gerald's game is an adaptation of the famous Stephen King book with the same name. This Netflix original film is directed by Mike Flanagan and stars a very familiar cast in terms of Flanagan's other work.
I thought this movie was great. Very minimal with the amount of actors / settings involved, but doesnt lack any of King's staple darkness.
Besides the ending this movie was a hellish and creepy ride. one scene in particular ( if you seen the movie you know) stuck with me for a while along with the creepy ass moonlight man.
I loved Haunting of Hill House but Gerald's Game was the movie that made me want to see more of Mike Flanagan's work. The screenplay is beautifully adapted and retains the uneasiness, grim, dread that King is well known for.
As a rabid Stephen King fan,I can't not to be impressed how perfect this adaptation is!Problem for me is inability to connect to actors portraying the main characters...
This was such an entertaining film in a way I was not expecting. The imagery is creepy and grotesque, the camera work builds on the suspense, and the acting from Carla is outstanding.
