The shining

Rating: 7/10 (25 February 2020)

So I used to think this movie was great. But now that I've read the book. My opinion remains.
There are somethings that I liked more in the movie than in the book. For example the maze. I loved the idea of the maze instead of being hedge animals attacking.
I kinda liked how it ended in te book with Jack having a redemption arc and the hotel blowing up.
The movie still feels rushed. He starts being aggressive too quickly. That's something I didn't like. The book does an awesome job showing his path from good to bad.
The character Wendy is shattered. She doesn't cry a lot. And she is much tougher.
I liked the adds that Kubrick did. The all work and no play... come play with us Danny, the elevator, and as I said the maze.
