After watching this movie, I just want a lot of people to be like me, I don't know what to express.
After reading a lot of comments, everyone seems to be analyzing various doubts about the movie, but I don't think any one can perfectly explain all the doubts, such as how Jack came out of the food storage room. If it is a ghost, it means that the whole hotel is haunted by ghosts. It can also be said that the ghost is going to kill their family. In this way, Jack is insane when he is possessed by a ghost or bewitched by a ghost. In this way, this is an ordinary ghost movie. But if the ghost can easily open the door of the warehouse, it can easily kill their family, why bother to confuse Jack to let him kill.
His son and black people have the supernatural ability of precognition, why the son has this ability but can't predict that his father will be controlled by ghosts, and he has been very calm in the face of ghosts several times, and I can't understand if he is not frightened. In the conversation between him and Jack on the bed, the son asked his father if you would not hurt me and my mother. This means that the son is Shining enough that his father will go crazy, so why didn't he tell his mother that his father was in a bad state, and let the tragedy happen like that.
The beauty of the movie lies in the unknown suspense, which allows the audience to solve the mystery by themselves, and the movie does not give the slightest answer. The horror atmosphere of the movie is supported by sound effects and acting skills. But it's really not scary at all, it's even a bit boring, many doubts have no beginning or end, no reason and no fruit, I think a lot of comments are a bit over-interpreted, and the whole film has no logical explanation from that point of view, this film is like A grotesque nightmare for Jack. Because you can't find any solid logic at all.
At the end of the film, Jack appeared in a group photo at a dance party, and the time was 1921. The time of the film is in the modern era, so he has lived to be in his 60s or 70s, so what is going on?
Sometimes it can't be interpreted from many angles. The creation of normal human beings must have normal logic. Even Kafka's novels will have a reasonable explanation side, which makes people lament the greatness of writing novels conceived from such an angle. .
But if it doesn't make sense, I can only say that I feel that the director is trying to add fuel to a story that is actually very simple, deliberately adding a lot of illogical foreshadowing, so that the audience can have all kinds of suspicion and over-interpretation. It's like the emperor's new clothes, stupid people can't see this beautiful dress, and the one who said this is the liar, whether you see it or not depends on whether you believe the liar's nonsense.
