Mike Flanagan walks a tight line between adapting Stephen King's sequel (one of the few he's written) and the iconic Stanley Kubric film (which King has never hidden his disdain for). While I felt the movie did drag at points, the casting was spot on and, overall, got things right. Kudos for Jacob Tremblay's small yet terrifying role and for one helluva finale.
