As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Stephen King's A Good Marriage (2014)

Post by Leisher »

A good marriage doesn't make for a good movie.

Joan Allen has been married to Anthony LaPaglia for many years. They've raised children together and put together a perfect life. In the shadow of their daughter's wedding she now discovers his secret, and realizes she doesn't know the man she married. It's King, so don't expect something like he's cheating on her.

I wrote that in lame marketing speech because that's how I envision this movie being pitched to Lifetime. I only assume it was a Lifetime movie because it's slow, boring, and the guy is the problem in the relationship.

It's not that it's crap, it's just not good.

Skip it.

I gave up on everything King when he praised the Dark Tower movie, when it was coming out. I get that it was time to "sell cars," but Christ. I can't believe he didn't hit the brakes when he read the original script. He's so full of shit it's rotted his brain. He's a walking shit-brain zombie. Don't steal my idea, Steph.
