Overrated, but still good

Rating: 7/10 (22 April 2016)

The Shining The Shining The Shining ....... As at today, one of the highest rated films on IMDb. But honestly i'm surprised. The background music made it terrifying, but often not leading to anything.The movie takes far to long to get going. While there are definitely some great moments and the final minutes are epic, this isn't the best drama or horror I've seen. I noticed that only people who were watched this at 1980 rate it so highly. Honestly it's good, but not the best, or even one of the best ever. I would advice you to watch it though, it is entertaining. Jack Nicholson's performance is totally extraordinary.In Summary, nice movie.......... period.
