"Jack Nicholson"
This of course is an older movie but still one of Nicholsons best.This movie keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout.

"THE CUCKOO'S NEST!!!"
There's so much to say about this HORROR CLASSIC "THE SHINING"! Specially for Mr. Jack Nicholson's great performance - Chilling, disturbing and REALLY SCARY!! I have seen this movie over and over again since it's release in 1980 and every time I watch it I discover new layers and levels of psychological horror in the way Mr. Nicholson gradually descends into madness until the very end when he tries to CHOP HIS FAMILY TO PIECES!! Then the ghostly apparitions - THE DEAD TWINS inviting little Danny to "COME AND PLAY FOR EVER, AND EVER AND EVER"!!
JUST WRITING THIS REVIEW GIVES ME GOOSEBUMPS! And of course all the supporting cast is excellent too! - Ms. Shelley Duval and Mr. Danny Lloyd must have been scared to death! This is a great issue of this movie for a great price for 2 disc set and in widescreen transfer for the first time ever! I can honestly say there are 2 TOP WACKOS in the history of Hollywood movies: NORMAN BATES (Mr. Anthony Perkins) and JACK TORRANCE (Mr. Nicholson) AND BOTH LIVE "FOR EVER, AND EVER AND EVER" for true horror fans like myself!! DO NOT MISS "THE SHINING"!! THANK YOU MR. STANLEY KUBRICK!!!

"Stanley Kubrick's finest!"
'The Shining',where would we be without Stanley Kubrick's distorted version of Stephen King's classic novel?the horror industry would be at a standstill.This is my absolute favorite of horror-films,it's a very dark film indeed.Believe it or not,this film is not much like the novel the one made for TV in early 2000 had more elements from the book not mentioned in the 1980 version-which actually works for me:)kubrick unlocked the darkest doors to his imagination when he made this film.Everything from the creepy little twins,to the Timberline Lodge Hotel(shown as the Overlook Hotel in the movie).Down to the old song you hear in the ballroom which was written in the 20's or 30's by Ray Noble and his Mayfair Dance Orchestra and the eerie film score by Wendy Carlos.There's not too many people who haven't seen this film and i've never met someone who didn't like it.If you've never seen this film shame on you for calling yourself a fan of Horror Movies and go buy this film!

"Blu-Ray Edition Really Elevates This Film"
When this came out on DVD, I gave it another shot, after not being too impressed with the VHS the first time. Wow, what a difference!, Now, the Blu-Ray is out and now the film has taken another giant leap. It makes the other versions look primitive.

On its own - and I'm not a horror movie buff - I found it to be very entertaining and very suspenseful film. Those visuals are so good that I didn't mind the slow pace. Jack Nicholson was perfect for the role. Shelley Duvall was fascinating with her "Olive Oyl" face, smile and soft voice. She got panned by a lot of people, and that was unfair. She's fine. The kid (Danny Lloyd) was good, too, as were the supporting players.

If you are any kind of a fan of this film, or director Stanley Kubrick's unique style of filmmaking, you owe it to yourself to look at it on this high-definition transfer. You'll be amazed how great it looks.

"Jack is still shining"
Another generation loves this movie! I bought this as a surprise for my daughter and her friends for a Halloween sleepover; all the girls loved this thriller!

"Blu-ray Review - Worthy of purchase", We've all seen this one, know the lines, and you likely have this on VHS and DVD.

That being said; a really good Blu-ray transfer. Shelly Long and that hideaous gaping maw of a mouth has NEVER looked so repulsive. Her giant piano key teeth really pop out during the beginning of this movie. It was the first thing my fiance and I noticed.

Jack Nicholson looks just that much crazier in hi-def. If you like the original film/DVD/VHS this is worthy of your Blu-ray collection.

On a side note - the TV mini-series movie thing is also on DVD. In my opinion it is far superior to Kubrick's rendition of the shining any day. You'll know exactly what I mean if you've read the book. Get this one on Blu-ray and also purchase:

"Stephen King's The Shining (Two Disc Special Edition) (1997)"

Use the above text in a search on Amazon, it's only $7.50 - you won't be dissapointed!

"Great job!", I am very pleased with the purchase. I received it before the date and the product is in great condition. Rate as high as I can!

"Kubric at his best. Of course...", From the cinematography to the cast, this film is by far one of the best I have seen. The story of John, Wendy and Danny Torrance's experience while takeing care of the "Overlook Hotel" for for the winter months is masterfully told. Watching Jack Nicholson portray a man teetering on the edge of sanity and finally crossing over the line while terrorizing his wife Played By Shelly Duval is mesmerizing. A modern classic of horror.

"A Masterpiece of Terror.", I am quite pleased to say that The Shining not only lives up to it's reputation but even exceeded nearly all the horror films that have come out since. The Shining is chilling, it's a subtle movie, at least by today's standards, it is brilliant on levels Hollywood has seems to have forgotten.

The subtle special effects are never overdone, never desensitizing us by overstimulating the horror factor over and over again until all the scares blend together. The absolutely fantastic cinematography and camera direction. The grand low shots following Danny at his own eye level as he rides around the hotel builds the terror of our expectations and then often denying us what we expect resulting in even greater impact when something paranormal does appear. The increasingly claustrophobic and uncomfortable shots make us feel like we are just as trapped there as Wendy. Finally the chaos that surounds Jack as he goes more and more insane. All of these are perfect in their effectiveness.

Jack Nicholson's performance is flawless and and every bit as riveting as the cinematography, I can't imagine how they could have found anyone more perfect for the part. Danny Lloyd also does a terrific job, especially when his imaginary friend comes out to play. Shelley Duvall's acting on the other end was fine but did stick out as the weakest part of the movie, but it gets the job done.

Of course, all this wouldn't be worth a thing of the story hadn't been so well written, Steven King obviously providing great source material while Stanley Kubrick and Diane Johnson's adaptation bringing the novel alive in cinema. All of this a testament to Kubrick's skill as a director.

If you haven't seen it you really need to, if you have seen it maybe you should see it again and try to appreciate it on a completely different level, I promise it won't disappoint.

"Classic Thriller", A suspense classic and excellant psychological thiller. Shelley Duvall and Jack Nickolson's performances are stellar in this movie. You'll never see Jack the same again. This movie is a must have for any home movie collection. I highly recommend it.

"STANLEY KUBRICK'S BOMB", The Shining
An ugly, hard-to-stomach horror movie, from Stanley Kubrick, whose sense of taste and feeling for his character have somewhat dulled. His source: Stephen's King's novel, was a horrifing tale, too, but King evokes a sence of concern for his characters which has totally eluded Kubrick's work here. Jack Nicholson is suitably menancing but Shelly Duvall is almost ludricrously weak.

"classic!", The Shining is one of the most classic creepy, Stephen King stories ever written! This movie will engulf you with the ongoing twist of events that is this scary movie! Jack Nicholson and Shelley DuVall are a fantastic pair! Watch this movie if you want to know the meaning of Redrum Redrum!

"An Epic, 'Thinking-Mans' Horror Film", When asked to summarize 'The Shining' in few words, I always respond with, "It's the greatest movie about writers block ever filmed".

Stanley Kubrick's film is much more psychological than gory or shocking(although it has its fair share of blood), a fact of which is mostly due to an ambiguous quality propelling both the story and the visuals. The film is even more mysterious than the novel, which itself is fairly clear about the big W's (who, what, where, etc). This is why I find the film version superior to the book, because it leaves more room for interpretation and discussion.

Not to mention the acting and the music. You would think that watching three actors rotting in an old hotel for three hours would be boring but it's quite the opposite. Jack Nicholson is wild here, you can tell from the instant you see him, there's something going on in him that's not quite right. And Shelley Duvall is perfect as the shy and loving wife who feels scorned by her husband and confused by her child. The music, a strange mix of synthesizers and Ligeti's compositions, sets the feel instantly, creating a dread and suspense uncommon in most other horror schlock.

It would be fair to say that 'The Shining' is, if not the best, one of the greatest gothic horror films ever produced. Highly recommended.

"Quite possibly the best film ever made", I remember when I first saw the trailer for this movie in the fall of 1980, and I was only 12 at the time, and I was so horrified with the heavy handed horror on this film. I even went as far as to saying "The Shining Stinks" to my classmates. I finally watched it on television in 1986, and I was 19 at the time, and I still had to turn on all the lights in the house as it still gave me the willies. This was however, a teriffic story about a man and his family staying in a hotel high up in the Rockies. The hotel is supposedly haunted, and the man begins his own descent into madness. This film is soooo good you can use it for a Sunday School lesson in which you talk about the young rich ruler who goes to Jesus, and asks what he could do to enter Heaven, and Jesus finally tells him to sell his possessions, and follow him, and the ruler goes away because he didn't want to part with his possessions. You can also use this as a Marriage Counselling tool as there was evidently alot of failure to communicate with the man and his wife. I can see a whole mess of things that this film depicts with the man and his wife. There is however, one flaw where the man fully descends into madness, and tries to murder his family with an ax, and chases his son into a hedge maze, and the wife is running through the hotel, and alot of people become alive, and creatures, or humans wearing animal costumes, and so forth. I still don't know what this was all about, but Kubrick does a good job of balancing those scenes with the chase scenes through the maze. I feel that this is quite possibly the best film ever made. I know the AFA lists "Citizen Kane" as the best film ever, but I know this is my all time favorite movie.

"CLASSIC", I'm woefully underqualified to review a master classic movie like this. I watched it for the first time in 2008, and it is not dated in the least. It managed to scare, thrill and keep me glued to the screen. Excellent story, characters, scenery, just about everything. A classic horror film.
