Watching this on an airplane screen significantly impacted my 4 star rating, as did my lack of interest in anything video game related
dope Shining scene though

600 pages later I finished the book and watched the movie for the first time and as with anything else, the movie canNOT live up.
Wendy is so SMART in the book and then in the film she's just a dumb wench who has no idea how to swing a g.d. bat???
Also, the hotel is BARELY even haunted in the film...
Basically what I'm saying is do yourself a favor and read the book
500000 stars alone for Jack Nicholson's scene chasing Wendy up the stairs tho..."LIGHT OF MY LIFE"
the beat of the movie goes like this:
funny funny a little bored dramatic funny
last five minutes: punched in the gut over and over again
trump is not going to be a huuuuge fan of this one
Whimsically dark alternate universe that is alarmingly not SO different from our own and it was so god damn FUN to watch
Nothing better than a movie that can play on absurdities like horse humans while also touching on that fun recurring anxiety we all have - what the fuck am I on this planet for?
And the cherry on top being that Armie Mother Fricken Hammer is the one breeding these equasapians?! My heart sings.
