This week, the Pals are reviewing the brand-new Stephen King adaptation The Long Walk (2025)! Directed by Francis Lawrence (Catching Fire, Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes) and starring Cooper Hoffman, David Jonsson, Mark Hamill, and more — this $20M dystopian thriller is already making waves.

We cover everything from the film’s tone, themes of survival and endurance, and the performances of its young cast, to the social parallels, shocking ending, and how it stacks up against other Stephen King adaptations.
