Movie Review: 1922 (2017)

This is a moody and well acted Stephen King adaptation. It’s not the most entertaining movie, but it is well done.

Thomas Jane is flat-out great as Wilfred James, a Nebraska farmer who conspires to kill his wife.

It’s a remarkably chilling performance, and so much of the movie relies on it. It’s a very slow movie, so miscasting here could cost the movie all the momentum it builds.

It’s difficult to describe exactly what happens, and I don’t want to spoil anything because it is good, and worth seeing.

Rating: 6/10
