If u're not a Stephen King's fan (SK), i still believe u'll enjoy it.. but if u're SK fan, u might consider this movie as one of the best SK movie! Drew Barrymore returns as the Firestarter, cute little girl who gives a great performance which can be considered the best after ET The Extra Terrestrial. David Keith here as a hero and a father to the Firestarter has a magical power, err...i don't know what it is called...let's say a mind blowing power which works as Scanner. David Keith performance is satisfied enough, maybe not the best, but at least shows a positive character and a good role model as father to her daughter. The best character in this movie is surely the villain George C Scott whom a superstar actor which nominated for Oscar in Patton 1970, and further up his career with an excellent performance in The Changeling 1980. Once again he has proved that this movie comes alive because of him.
Nothing to say about the plot of this ,movie...but Firestarter still have some flaws. I realized that it is hard to adapt a story from SK novel, but at least Mark L Lester has made his best in adapting SK movie. Many critics appears to give negative reviews about Firestarter, but i wouldn't really give a damn about it. Firestarter is no Godfather or 12 Angry Men, not even close to the great Terminator & Alien, but it still definitely worth watching! Overall give this movie a try, sure u'll love it! 10* out of 10*
