I can not explain in words! How much I loved this film but I'm going to try! I honestly don't think there is anything wrong with this film! And it is a perfect sequel to the Shining.! If your heart doesn't beat to the soundtrack, and you don't feel those happy goosebumps several times during the film, it makes your heart thump right along with it.. the director GETS IT. He feels it. Few people can translate this well from an original tale within a tale within a tale. Rebecca Ferguson is a revelation in this film! She does some horrific things in it and I was just sitting in my seat in awe of her the whole time! The things Mike Flanagan pulls off in this not many directors can do! and it brings the Shining back around in the most incredible way in this day in age! I mean the metaphor for this film is so true to what happens as you get older! It's been done a million times but not like this. I was cheering right along the whole time, critics are calling it the best Stephan King adaptation since the Shining & They are so right! “Keep the Shawshank Redemption and the Green Mile aside” I mean it's a truly incredible film. So much is happening and you never feel lost OR over explained to like your an idiot! It's best to rewatch the Shining before. Because it is straight up a sexual to it. what I hope for every Shining fan is to get a chance to enjoy this truly unique and amazing cinematic experience!
P.S watch the extended 3 hours version 😅
