Blumhouse reignites Firestarter with this explosive adaptation of the classic Stephen King thriller. Protected by her parents, Charlie has lived her childhood on the run and has kept her extraordinary pyrokinetic powers in check. But now that she's turning 11, the flames are harder to control, and sinister forces are seeking to capture her. Charlie must learn to embrace the fire from within and fight to control it in order to protect her family and freedom.

Graderings en resensies

Essentially a low budget indie film. Acting is okay, the number of people in screen is limited, possibly many reuse of actors. Music is not good, for several times I was forced out of the plot due to the music being so generic that I couldn't stop thinking if they downloaded some online stock music as BGM. VFX is disappointing, fires are mostly 2D After Effect, the biggest one at the end is obviously done by a flamethrower, which really makes her power feel weak.

Having loved the original starring Drew Barrymore, I was excited to see this despite the bad reviews. I watched this with great anticipation and was sorely disappointed. I am STILL not sure what I watched, but it bore no resemblance to the Stephen King novel or original at all. Why Zach Efron signed up for this piece of garbage is beyond me. The writing, acting, and special effects were just awful. Top 3 worst remakes I have ever seen.

This movie I've been waiting to see for a very long time. I have seen this movie back in the day. I loved it then and I love it today. Awesome they brought my movie back today. All the characters are awesome and main character too and little girl entire movie this movie should be rated 10 stars all the way around global.
