I know this is a 1980 movie and movies have come a long way since then, but man this movie sucks so bad! Nothing is serious about this movie, even the ratings are way stretched, the fade transition between scenes is appaling and the story is a 5 minutes made 144 minutes, I literally had to speed the movie 30% to keep it watchable. All in all, this movie is a true meme!

This is one of Stanley Kubrick's best films. A true horror movie without having to rely on jump scares or gimmicks. The score is truly unsettling and with the cuts of disturbing imagery it builds tension well. Jack Nicholson gives the performance of his career here. The Overlook Hotel is so unique. The attention to detail and production design is flawless.

I went into this thinking it was going to be so unbelievably unnerving that I would be tense throughout the whole viewing. Instead I felt bored out of my damn mind, I've watched absolutely terrible movies that I would watch again before this. THIS is considered one of the best horror movies of all time? What???

Good acting by Jack N. with a few good scenes and good shots with camera, but not a very good film. With a few good things for such a long film IMO too overrated.

I happened to watch the movie today (July 4th 2021) not knowing that the movie ends on the shot of the July 4th ball in 1921. Very creepy.

It aged pretty good, no CG special effects or cheap thrills, just horror of isolation.

The film feels overly long for the story, which I feel loses it 2 in the rating. Filming, editing, dialogue & acting are all good but just need an overall tightening up to about 100-110 minutes
