Quotes from the Movie

"Well, you can rest assured, Mr. Ullman, that's not going to happen with me."--Jack Torrance (Jack Nicholson) to Stuart Ullman (Barry Nelson) when told about a previous caretaker who killed his entire family with an ax, then put a shotgun in his own mouth "Redrum! Redrum!"--Danny Torrance (Danny Lloyd) "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." "You've always been the caretaker here, Mr. Torrance."--Delbert Grady (Philip Stone) to Jack "Heeeeere's Johnny!"--Jack (ad-libbed) "Forever, and ever, and ever..."--Grady's daughters (Lisa and Louise Burns) to Danny "I'm not gonna hurt you. Wendy, darling, light of my life, I'm not gonna hurt you. You didn't let me finish my sentence. I said, I'm not gonna hurt you. I'm just gonna bash your brains in."--Jack to Wendy (Shelley Duvall)

It's Not Gonna Hurt Ya: Kubrick's The Shining

Epinions

Pros	Nicholson, Kubrick's direction, script, everything
Cons	None
Bottom Line	Not to be snobby, but it's crazy finding people who still haven't seen this. With the special edition released last year, this is the perfect time.

Overrated as hell, but still a good horror film

Epinions

Pros	Jack Nicholson's performance, well-shot
Cons	Not creepy at all, Shelley Duvall, overlong and plodding
Bottom Line	In the end, "The Shining" is a well-crafted film, but as a horror film, it takes way too long to develop. Worth seeing for Nicholson's performance, though.
