With more than six hours, and being written by the King, there was hope that the result would be a reasonable adaptation for "The Stand". But the cast poor and low budget, were not sufficient to give the consistency that the story needed. The result is a film only reasonable.

A wonderful adaptation of Stephen King's best book. A stellar cast pulls it all together and some great filming keeps it moving right along. It doesn't even need the trademark King 'scary bits'. This could be the most under-rated television miniseries ever.

After having read the book the film seems lacking. This is a mixed bag of performances, some great and some truly awful. It's fun for what it is, but I can't help thinking that had this been an extended series on HBO without any censorship issues, this could have been SO much more.

Has a ton of awesome perfomances along with one of the most chilling starts ever. The first half is mostly pure awesome, then it slowly falls apart over the remaining half.

One of my favorite books turned into a rather lame TV movie. It's not terrible, but the potential was there for something great. Some of the "special effects" don't exactly hold up...I'm pretty sure they were laughable when this came out, actually. And a classicly terrible performance by Parker Lewis.

Meh. As a Stephen King fan AND "The Stand" being one of my favorite novels by him, I *had* to like this. Still, that's certainly not how I'd pictured Randall Flagg... Gary Sinise was good as Stu, though.

A decent stab at telling the story, but loses steam as the plot progresses. The cast do a pretty good job, but the overall product is far from stunning.

Loved this with the exception of the very end. In Oz, it was seven HOURS long, I don't recommend watching this in a single setting

Trying to condense this book, even if to an 8-hour miniseries, still just loses so much.
