Review of The Shining (1980) by Eric M — 26 Aug 2014
Again, a Kubrick film that is a technical marvel of suspense and fright, a film that will worm it's way into your mind for weeks, but one that really doesn't have much of a story to tell. Kubrick enjoys messing with his audience's mind through a terrifying performance by Nicholson, but by the end you might wonder "what was it all for?" Only so much credit can be given to a film that simply provides sustained madness.
