    What a great flick! Ewen McGregor is fantastic and Stephen King always scares the beejezous out of me.
  • Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
    Solid sequel to the shining, although it is an entirely different atmosphere. I don't think Ewan was the best choose to play Danny but he's not bad,

    One of the greatest movies I've ever seen.

    Slow pace, lacks horror, an embarrassment compared to the shining.

    A very worthy sequel to the original. Highly recommend and it makes Dannys perspective way more interesting!!!

    This movie earned its rightful spot on my personal hall of fame! I really enjoyed the plot, with a nice blend of visual scares and thought-provoking dialogue, and the characters really stood out to me as robust and investment-worthy. No shortage of Shining Easter eggs to find throughout as well, which I really enjoyed! This film did a great job of honoring its predecessor as well as forging its own path. Bravo!

    Mike Flanagan is no joke! He gets it! All his anthology films and this... Doctor Sleep... ooooooweee scary good. I never really cared for the creepies in film, but the True Knot cult made me invested Rose the Hat creeped me out... poor Violet, is all I'm saying! Oh, Danny and Abra totally different, but compliments each other! I've watched this movie countless of times.

    This movie has a fantastic script and performances. Sadly, it's largely underrated and underappreciated. Mike Flanagan is generally a bit hit and miss, but his vision and directing here is excellent.

    Might just be the best Stephen King adaptation. Better than the Shining!

    I'm finishing the book now and I have to say that both are wonderful, book and movie. Even in their small differences, they manage to be perfect. I'm in love with the adult Dany, he's wonderful, with his monsters, flaws and so many other things. Ewan is a brilliant actor, he fit the role perfectly, I can't imagine any other face for Dan Torrence Abra, however, he didn't win me over as much in the book, but the actress's interpretation was contagious, I fell madly in love with her performance. Dr. Sleep is one of the few movies that I want to watch again every chance I get. It left me euphoric from start to finish, it really is very good. I simply fell in love.
