Jul 17, 2021Plodding Stephen King story that bores more than it scares. Some good acting and set design are completely wasted on this dull and disappointing nonsense - 3 Babyluvs out of 10
-
One of Stephen King’s most personal tales, Lisey’s Story has much to admire, but its literary conceits captured in striking but chilly filmmaking do little to get the pulse racing.
-
Lisey’s Story is a great case study for the strengths and weaknesses of King’s writing — beautiful themes occasionally clashing against self-indulgence. Lucky for us, the good outweighs the bad, and like Lisey, we can find a glimmer of closure among the fog of confusion and despair.

It swings for something big and cinematic and artistic and deep, which you may take as a good plan or a bad one. It is the sort of work that some will find ineffably beautiful and others unbearably tiresome. Acknowledging its prettiness and production values, and some excellent performances, I found it better than unbearable but something less than beautiful.
