The book was even better.

But this is one of the rare cases where a Stephen King based movie is actually good.

Yes, that's what my son said too.

He's the one who suggested we watch it after he read the book.

If you have read the book then the film is going to be bad. It will an average-to-good if you haven't read the book.

The tidal wave of zombies looks pretty ridiculous, their limbs would all be broken. It's a shame because if they had stuck to the book, it could have been a fantastic movie.

Hopefully they will include the Battle of Yonkers.
