I was on an emotional roller coaster!!! When i watch a movie I don’t want to just watch it, I want to take it in, I want to have an experience, I want it to change me in some way. I want to feel happy, sad, inspired…. This was beautiful and profound in the most bittersweet way.

The movie felt refreshing. So many genres just seem to repeat or worn out. This movie was original it didnt go in depth with the plot, but it was good enough to enjoy and be surprised by.

They changed a lot in the movie compared to the book. If you read the book be warned it’s not like how you imagined they would make it.

Not one of King's better works. The storyline could have offered more than just a painstakingly endless walk with sprinkles of kill scenes. This movie may have made a better book than going to the big screen.

Couldn't take my eyes off the screen! Not your typical dystopian movie! What would your body go through if you were in a walk or you die race and would you be able to handle it when your body starts rebelling? Not for faint hearted!

Despite the stamping of hundreds of feet, The Long Walk smolders with the blunt power of a burned flag.

Allegories are unavoidable. The walk is American capitalism. The walk is life itself. It requires, however, no such connections to enjoy the best King adaptations in many years.

No one should mistake The Long Walk for fun. But there’s satisfaction in its endurance, in the way grim inevitability drives the narrative with allegorical force. By the credits, you’ll feel as though you’ve marched every mile alongside the boys exhausted, shaken, and strangely, perhaps, wanting more.
