The Shining task.





The Shining task


Plot
Jack Torrance has writer's block, but his tactic of moving into an old hotel over winter with his wife and son brings out more than just the artistic demons in him...
 
Verdict
Ostensibly a haunted house story, it manages to traverse a complex world of incipient madness, spectral murder and supernatural visions... and also makes you jump.

Reviews -  My review on the film is that it is a really good film it gets you thinking and leaves you wanting to know more. It leaves you asking more questions at the end than before you watched it. With all the reviews I have read the audiences really enjoyed the film but left a bit confused at the end but maybe that's a good thing.  

My opinion on the actors performances was that all the actors suited there role in the film and they played the characters very well.

Critic Review - Boston Globe When you sit down to The Shining, you sit down with normal expectations of being diverted, perhaps even being gripped, but not being undermined. But the film undermines you in powerful, inchoate ways. It's a horror story even for people who don't like horror stories - maybe especially for them.
