Riding the Bullet

I read alot of books of Stephen King but I don't remember reading this one. So watching the movie seemed like a fine option. The problem with book adaptations of Stephen King is that the outcome is or brilliant (The Shawshank Redemption, The Shining, The Green Mile, Stand By Me, Mysery and more) or just below average and I'm afraid we can classify Riding The Bullet in the second category. The story is quite boring to watch, the acting is okay but since the plot is so confusing at times you just lose interest after awhile. I'm sure the book is much better, like most of the time. If you still want to give this movie a go just make sure you're not too tired because otherwise you will guarantee fall asleep.

Yesterday I was visiting my brother-in-law and we decided to rent this DVD to watch with a group of friends, based on the name of Stephen King highlighted on the cover of the DVD. The story is about a morbid young man, who tries to suicide on the day of his birthday just because his girlfriend had broken with him. When he leaves the hospital, he is informed that his mother had a stroke, and he hitchhikes with weird persons during the night in lonely roads trying to visit her. One of the drivers is death, who asks him to choose who should die: himself or his mother. In this moment, he realizes how important is to live, and changes his attitude and behavior regarding life. Maybe Stephen King's book is good, I have never read it, but this adaptation is a crap. We were a group of nine friends, five slept in the middle of the film. My vote is four. Title (Brazil): "Montado na Bala" ("Riding the Bullet")

Wow, not as good as I expected. Kept putting off wayching it an now I know why. Too all over the place. I felt a bit schitzo. Drifted off twice
