Watching The Best: The Shining [Revisit]

Watching The Best

The Shining [Revisit]

A superb classic, excelling in any way a suspense-filled thriller can. Fantastic performances all around, and just about perfect cinematography.

10/10

I keep track of the movies I watch on a spreadsheet. I note the date, the title, whether or not this is my first viewing of said film, and a rating along with some brief thoughts. This is, more or less, a public version of that spreadsheet.

My Rating Scale

0-3: Films that simply aren't worth anyone's time.
4-6: Films that are solid but unremarkable in any way. I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend these films, but I wouldn't try and dissuade anyone from seeing them.
7-10: Films I actively endorse and recommend whenever possible.
