Steaming pile of Stupid Horrible Insipid Trash

Rating: 1/10 (3 September 2007)

Stanley Kubrick f*cked Stephen King's book big time!!! Casting was good, but the story got cut to shreds, and what was with that dumb @ss line "Here's Johnny"?. D@mn! Did he actually READ the book ? Heck he even knows his movie sucked because he forbade Stephen King from saying what he thought about Kubrick's adaptation (bastardization) in public ! Like I said, the casting WAS good, I'll give him that. Jack Nicholson played the part well. The actress that played Wendy was good too. Scatman Crouthers did well too. However, Kubrick put stuff in that wasn't in the book, and he ripped the ending of the book to shreds. Anyone who read the book knows the main character doesn't freeze to death in the story!!
As far as I'm concerned, the only good movie Kubrick's made is "Full Metal Jacket". Don't waste your money on this movie, read the book instead! My review is REALLY " - 100 out of 10 " !!!
