I think. . . very bad

1. The most horrible movie in the legend. I didn't see any horror shots. When the shots were switched, the shadows gradually disappeared. It is because this movie is so old that it has been hailed as a classic and cannot be changed.
2. I have never been cold about old movies, especially this one. It’s not scary. I read a lot of film reviews and analyzed a lot, including the saying that children are split personality, but I still think there is nothing classic, just a slow-paced one. , A long junk movie. Maybe it was a classic in horror movies 30 years ago, but it certainly isn't now. Some say that the lens feels good, such as the lens chasing a little boy behind him, and the little boy riding a bicycle. But this kind of lens is too abusive, even in the maze, it's really nothing to praise after using it many times. The most hateful thing is to increase the horror atmosphere and simulate it with noise-like sounds. This is not a kind of beauty, good or not.

    Five stars! The script and actor skills are both quite a solid horror movie! Most people can only see pictures in their dreams and rarely see words. The dream manifests the subconscious mind. Kubrick is a master at using images. The images in "The Shining" use a lot of metaphors. When fans watch it, they feel like they have entered a lucid hypnosis. The rich elements of fear in the images unconsciously Implanted deep in the consciousness of movie fans.

    Lloyd: No, sir. I'm not busy at all.

    Jack Torrance: Good man. You set 'em up, and I'll knock 'em back - one by one.
