Stephen King's The Stand is a riveting TV movie / miniseries and a real achievement in King's novel adaptation to the screen.

IncredibleStephen King's The Stand is a riveting TV movie / miniseries and a real achievement in King's novel adaptation to the screen. The America's Lord of the Rings set in a realistic post apocalyptic world devasted by a lethal virus. Incredible performance from renowned actors like Gary Sinise, Rob Lowe, Corin Nemec, Ed Harris or even Kathy Bates in a great cameo. All packed with realistic production design and a mesmerizing original score from composer W.G. Snuffy Walden. The Stand is also the unofficial basis to the hit comic book TV adaptation of The Walking Dead from die-hard King fan Frank Darabont. The pilot scene with Grimes escape from the hospital is nearly the same as Stuart Redman's hospital escape from The Stand as an exemple. Deserve to be seen at any price. Expand

It looks like the world is ending, leading to final battle between good and evil, yet people don't express any stronger emotions. No fear of devil, no fear of God, no hope for heaven... They just live like almost nothing major happened. IIt looks like the world is ending, leading to final battle between good and evil, yet people don't express any stronger emotions. No fear of devil, no fear of God, no hope for heaven... They just live like almost nothing major happened. I hate histerical acting, that plague modern movies, but this is the other extreme. Also the music while not bad, doesn't fit the whole situation at all, mostly resembling me either family, or action movie other times. Speaking about action scenes... I felt embarrassed at times.

Great start to the movie, what a story line, but it drags to the finish line.
