Review of The Shining

Rating: 8/10 (7 November 2017)

I think that in this movie, some of the Easter eggs (or more blatantly obvious hints) are supposed to give the viewer a insight to possible outcomes of the entire situation.
With these hints and Easter eggs, Kubrick has implemented an element of mystery to the movie, for those that have not watched it before.
I think personally that these Easter eggs mainly suggest mass genocide, as the hotel is built on top of a native American burial ground. But that's just my opinion.
This movie is definitely a classic! It is like the first puzzle a child puts together, or like that first taste of wine that you get from your parents. Its bitterly sour and confusing at first, but as it goes on it all makes sense.
Overall this movie was amazing, and provided puzzling scenes for me to look at closely and have that moment of "oooh, so that's what it means!" If you love movies that have a great story line and plenty to keep you watching, then I highly suggest this movie!
