Negative Positive
Title: Faithful, but not a classic like the Kubrick film.
Review: I just finished this about a few minutes ago and when I compare the two versions of The Shining, I perfer Stanley Kubrick's version over this one. The original is a classic and this one is very well done, but not as well done as the original. If you are a Stephen King fan, you should at least give it a try. Just do not expect something as great as Stanley Kubrick's legendary version of The Shining. I would call this being close to being a semi-great movie. Still, this is a very good movie that is definately worth viewings. However, this is the only good remake of a Stephen King adaptation, for the remakes of The Dead Zone, Carrie, and Salem's Lot sucked horribly.
Is the review positive or negative?
