AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

vailus-1 I remember when this show came out. It was originally advertised as a mini-series. At the end of the last episode it said "To Be Continued" to the dismay of all the people who had watched the whole boring beyond words thing. It ended as it was supposed to, so yes, you can blame the series for having no ending. The plan was for there to be another obviously if ratings had been higher, but it was a boring show that way too long, and annoyed people by not ending when it said it would, so they never made any more. Quite a few of the comments blame its cancellation and lack of ending on the viewing public, when the truth is that for this show that is not the case, it ended the way it was actually planned to end, it is just a lousy ending.

Aki Shinji I really hated this movie and it's the first movie written by Stephen King that I didn't finish. I was truly disappointed, it was the worst crap I've ever seen. What were you thinking making three hours out of it? It may have a quite good story, but actors? No. Suspense? No. Romance? No. Horror? No. It didn't have anything.It's got this strange, crazy science man with Einstein-hair, the classic thing. Not real at all. And a man keep getting younger all the time. It seems like they just used the name of Stephen King to make a crappy, too long movie with nothing exciting at all.I give this movie "1 (awful)". If they had like -5, I would probably take that instead. It was a total waste of time.

ColeSear First: I must say I'm confused by people who say they've read the book I've read all of his books and would advise those who make such claims to check Stephen King's official website and look at his bibliography.This was an original television series developed by King. A typical episode of an hour long actually runs 46 minutes, so that would mean about 100 minutes were edited off this version but the continuity still works on the video version. We're only left wanting of a final fate for Dr. Toddhunter. I think we could've gotten to better know these characters given the extra time as King loves to delve in deeply into these personalities but I'll look at what we're given.There was great potential for a long running series here and I don't understand how people never caught on. The acting was uneven especially in Felicity Huffman's performance but the characterization was strong. Some plot points were predictable but King was building great suspense regardless. He added in dovetails to 'Firestarter' with a mention of John Rainbird and an allusion to 'The Stand' with the mention of Captain Trips. R.D. Call was a great King villain playing Jude Andrews and Keith Szarabajka was very sympathetic in the lead.It's difficult watching this now because you get a sense King was warned the ratings were bad and was given the chance to have some sort of end to the series. So we get one, kind of. We never find out how exactly the chemicals gave him (Harlan) these powers and exactly what Harlan Williams can now do but only settle the dramatic dispute.As to the regenerating agent. It would've been interesting to learn exactly what the side affects were and what would happen as Harlan got younger and younger but it became difficult. This title now sits along side 'The Plant' (Which King has tried to publish twice) as projects he just can't seem to finish.And it's a shame I would've liked to have seen where this one was going.

Shane Seckler This was a good little movie, the version shown on tv was not quite the version you can rent at the video store. Overall, it's worth watching, as it has quite a few plot twists. The ending is a little weak, but still a good movie. If you didn't like "Insomnia" (book), you probably won't like Golden Years. Any true 'King fan will love this movie.
