Way better than expected
Who knew a sequel to the shining wouldn't suck. Highly recommend! It's a different beast than Kubricks original and some of the recasts are poor but overall it's really good.
This is more of a fantasy thriller than a horror film. Ewan McGregor does a great job as an adult Danny Torrance and Rebecca Ferguson captivates as Rose the Hat. The way the movie was filmed and edited really exemplified a typical horror movie. Doctor sleep includes a constant mist in the settings, there are a lot of dramatic slow panoramic shots, and the music is eerie and impactful.
This is a lengthy movie. It took a while to build up of which some parts are boring. Rose The Hat was awesome to watch. The move overall stands out on its own. A good sequel nevertheless.
