Here’s the second Facebook review that got a lot of backlash. Some people like boring movies, I suppose
Just finished watching The Shining. It has to be one of the most boring films I have ever watched. Nothing happens in it. It should have been titled "The Snoring" because i almost fell asleep. How this movie is regarded as one of the greatest films of all time is beyond me
It's two hours of the camera paning around a hotel with Shelly Duvall and Jack Nicholson taking turns walking down hallways by themselves. They spent 10 minutes showing a lady get out of the bathtub as slow as possible as then It took another 20 minutes to wipe off a spilled drink in a different bathroom, and the rest of the movie is Jack Nicholson stumbling around in the snow with a broken ankle holding an axe. Not suspenseful or scary.
The scariest part is when the music would come to a climax and the scene would change with the day of the week showing on screen. Whack
The kid and Shelly Duvall were great actors though.
