"The Shining" is not a good movie
Debate Information
Everyone says that it is a masterpiece, but I just can't see anything in it.
-The acting of the child is cringeworthy.
-There is an unneeded supernatural plot that the movie would be better without.
-The movie becomes TOO predictable at the end.
-It does these "pauses" to build tension but they end up just boring you instead.
-There is a tense music after... everything really. I could swear that at least %40 of the movie goes on with some high pitched, tension building music in the background.
-That "redrum" scene with the child... I tried so hard not to just stop watching the film after that.
-Nearly no scene manages to be scary.(except that one scene with the two girls standing at the end of the corridor. That was actually a well-executed and scary scene.)
-"The Shining" has nothing to do with what the film is about. The black guy explains what it is but it plays no role except the child sometimes makes faces when events happen.
-So, what happenned to the child exactly? The demon said that the boy was no longer there but the mom was a little too busy with fighting her crazy husband so she didn't care. The demon just got bored I guess?
-Jack felt so powerless. Yeah, his build-up was good but when the time came, it felt like that tension was built up for nothing. He wasn't even a real threat. He just killed a black guy that literally no one cared about. The mom and the son escaped without a scratch.
-Remember the 2 little girls? Yeah. So, what exactly was their deal? Oh, they were just a cheap way of scaring the audience because they couldn't find anything else and had to make something up? Okay then.
I hate this movie so much. I was hyped for it, too. I thought that, it has to be so good! These many people can not be wrong about this one thing! And guess what? They were. Worst movie I have ever watched. I have seen bad movies, sure. But this was hard to watch.

The Shining, on the other hand, is just like the Emoji movie in my opinion. It is just bad and boring. I may have exaggerated when I called it the "worst movie" but it is certainly up there(or more fittingly, "down there").
I just want to know what other people see in this movie. What did this movie do well other than that one scene where the two girls spook Danny while he is riding a bicycle? I can even admit that Jack's build-up was good, but that is not enough to call the movie good.
