Cons: shelly duval
This was S. Kubrick's masterpiece. THose who didn't like this film fail to appreciate a true master at work. Certainly, one of the most monumental works in moviemaking.

Pros: Incredibly well done. Jack Nicholson is perfect for the part.
Cons: The wife is kind of annoying.
Jack Nicholson is the only person in the world who could play this part. Any of the remakes of The Shining have different actors, and aren't as good. I'm not one to always say this, however, in this case the original is the best. Everything was put in the right spot, none of the scenes had flaws. The only bad thing IN the movie was the actrice playing the wife. She started to get a little annoying near the end, but that doesn't ruin the film at all. She's just a little annoying, that doesn't mean there is any flaw in the film. This is my favorite horror film, it builds up more and more the further the movie progresses. You should definitely go out and buy this whether you like horror films or not. You HAVE to own this movie, it will always remain a great classic. Even as special effects get better, this will stay put one of the best horror films. ...
