Acerca de esta película

VERSIÓN DEL DIRECTOR DE DOCTOR SLEEP incluye escenas nuevas y alternativas/extendidas no vistas en el cine. DOCTOR SLEEP es la continuación de la historia de Danny Torrance 40 años después de los primeros eventos en El Resplandor, de Stephen King. Aún marcado irremediablemente por el trauma infantil en el Overlook, Dan Torrance ha conseguido encontrar la paz. Pero esa paz se rompe al conocer a Abra, una valiente adolescente con su propio don extrasensorial, conocido como el “resplandor”. Reconociendo por instinto que Dan comparte su poder, Abra lo ha buscado desesperada para que la ayude contra la despiadada Rose la Chistera y sus seguidores, el Nudo Verdadero. Formando una extraña alianza, Dan y Abra se ven envueltos en una batalla a vida o muerte con Rose. La inocencia y el audaz resplandor de Abra hacen que Dan desarrolle sus poderes como nunca antes, mientras que se enfrenta a sus miedos y despierta a los fantasmas del pasado.

Calificaciones y opiniones

I missed it in the theaters and ended up buying the director's cut. So not sure what was cut but to my surprise this version has a lot of the Shining revisited and explored. Took a day to process but definitely loved it. Interesting story and characters, plus the soundtrack, mystery and horror kept me glued. Flanagan clearly a big fan, does a good job continuing the story to please both Kubrick and King fans.

I have to admit that I was less than enthusiastic when I learned about a sequel to The Shining. What could Stephen King possibly add to that story? Right? So wrong. I was absolutely blown away by the theatrical version of Doctor Sleep and if I were to choose 3 words to describe it: Genius, brilliant, perfect. Ewan McGregor, Rebecca Ferguson, and Kyliegh Curran are excellent. Mike Flanagan did something really amazing here! You wouldn't want to miss this!

An absolute masterpiece, well worth waiting 40 years for! Mike Flanagan has once again proven he can take almost any source material and easily translate it to the screen so seamlessly, it's like it took him no effort at all. Incredible performances, doesn't detract from the original story, expands on its lore, pays minimal homage to the Kubrick adaptation (which Stephen King absolutely hated!) but here, I think Mr. King is so proud of the people who have been adapting his works recently!
