Blumhouse reignites Firestarter with this explosive adaptation of the classic Stephen King thriller. Protected by her parents, Charlie has lived her childhood on the run and has kept her extraordinary pyrokinetic powers in check. But now that she's turning 11, the flames are harder to control, and sinister forces are seeking to capture her. Charlie must learn to embrace the fire from within and fight to control it in order to protect her family and freedom.

Critics Consensus: There was plenty of room to improve on the original, but Firestarter trips over that low bar and tumbles toward the bottom of the long list of Stephen King adaptations.

Reviews

Rotten

Firestarter evokes no strong feelings. It's not a film that has a point of view or an urge to get you to understand something about human nature.

Beyond the Cinerama Dome

Rotten

Firestarter should either be a campy romp or a semi-serious look at the way people try to quell the rage of young women.

Rotten

Keith Thomas sets the original script on fire and with that, the possibility of making a better movie. [Full review in Spanish]

Fresh

When the lit match hits the tinder, the powered prodigy pulls no punches, making for a high body count as she turns the tables on the government’s goons, who devise an impressive gauntlet to capture her.

Rotten

Besides its competent musical score from Carpenter and actors that appear to try, Firestarter is a lacklustre remake. It lacks both horror and heart, features shoddy effects and suffers from a complete identity crisis.
