Excellent Movie

Rating: 10/10 (15 October 2010)

First of all, allow me to say, I did not read the book. I find that people who say they have read the book seem to be disappointed in this movie..wow..for me, this movie was the opposite of being disappointing..I found this movie riveting, and outstanding. From the acting to the cinematography to the directing, this movie is a ten in my estimation. Each actor/actress makes you believe each scene...of course,one of the best scenes is when Jack Nicholson breaks down the bathroom door with an ax, and put is face in the hole in the broken door saying "heeeeeere's Johnny".....it's a great scene because of the build up. You can cut through the tense as it rises within the Overlook. Great acting, great directing, great scenery, great story. I highly recommend this movie. I would put it in my top 50, for sure!
