Description

For more than a decade, parents Andy and Vicky have been on the run, desperate to hide their daughter Charlie from a shadowy federal agency that wants to harness her unprecedented gift for creating fire into a weapon of mass destruction. Andy has taught Charlie how to defuse her power, which is triggered by anger or pain. But as Charlie turns 11, the fire becomes harder and harder to control. After an incident reveals the family's location, a mysterious operative is deployed to hunt down the family and seize Charlie once and for all. Charlie has other plans.

First of all, it's not canon.
Secondly, nothing good appeared in the film because they moved away from the book

@id1081158: I try to avoid movies, anime, and TV series released before 2000, with few exceptions.

@NatashCHa: it's just that I don't like poor picture quality, if we talk about movies, as well as the disgusting anime drawing inherent in those times. Of course I know it's not very good, but I can't help myself.

Average-average average, without claims to something more. At least I was only offended by the fact that I would like a slightly more confident acting game and that's it. So it is often just normal, not disgusting for sure.
P.$. I didn't read the original, it didn't affect my opinion about the film in any way .
The previous film is based on the original most likely did not watch and I'm not going to look up what I missed because for me it is painfully archaic and Old Believers (judging by the date of release ) :)
As a separate production (based on something there), this film looks and feels just normal and that's it :with 💁

My God, someday we will have good-quality film adaptations of all King's works, but this will be a completely different story ...
The film adaptation (if the language turns to call it that at all) causes a feeling of fierce rage and boredom. I didn't realize for the first 10-15 minutes that Zac Efron was playing my father, and then I was shocked at how much he sucks at playing.
The last time I experienced such feelings was watching Telekinesis with Moretz and somehow I didn't want to repeat them at all. If you consider that the book itself is quite thin, then it is better to spend the time allotted for the film on reading.
