Like Roland the Gunslinger before us, we've finally reached the Dark Tower. I began this series in preparation for this movie, reading the entire series to get ready for it. After going through those 4000 or so pages of characters and mythology, how do I feel about the movie adaptation I read them for? Well, I'm sorry to say, kind of disappointed. Not that it's a bad movie, though it's certainly not a great movie, but it just didn't have the feel of the series. That ineffable quality that made the books unique and engaging. I'll try to explain what I mean.
