"Finally, just for today, I am gonna say The Shining. Just a great film. It’s a great horror film and it’s incredibly creepy; fantastic performances and just that sense of threat that is prevalent throughout the whole movie. I just love it."

"I love horror movies, and it was between The Thing and The Shining, but again, The Thing, I think, I’ve seen more times. Everybody’s great in it; it’s just a great ensemble. The creature design is awesome. It’s one of those movies that you can watch over and over."

Mediocre Spielberg
The movie feels thin, take away the references to video games and pop culture and you have a very poor movie for the talents of Spielberg. I love the visuals and the concept tho with the shining scene being the highlight here.

Great!
This movie is SO much better than I expected. The little boy from "The Shining" is all grown up. He and a young girl with psychic abilities(shine)take on a powerful cult of monsters posing as people. The acting is really good and the cinematography very good. The story unfolds beautifully with many twists and turns and ups and downs. If you enjoyed "The Shining" you'll really enjoy this one. The special effects were pretty cool. I wouldn't recommend it for younger viewers as there are some fairly graphic violent scenes. Overall though this one has lots of emotional moments and plenty of creep factor. The ending is fantastic. Really worth a watch!
