classic brilliance
By cheesekake (1283 reviews) from uk , 07 Mar 2012[Highly rated reviewer]
every now and then a film comes along that no matter how many times you watch it you still find it briliant, and that is rare with horror, however with this one its just simply amazing, timeless and just classic greatness

By a customer , 17 Apr 2013Jack Nicholsan plays his part brilliantly but apart from that.... What a weird bizarre pointless film! Glad I saw it but don't see what all the fuss is about.- Was this review helpful to you?

The sheen has faded on this one
By a customer , 07 Mar 2013I hadn't seen this for a quarter of a century, so I decided to watch it again, prompted no doubt by the recent NFT revival. What I re-discovered was a film that looks wonderful - there can be no doubt that the crystal-clear images still have the power to create awe - but which is not only thin in plot but really weakened by the acting of the two leads. Nicholson especially totally overplays his role - the caricature that blighted his subsequent career started here - and Duvall is all bulging eyes and damsel in distress. By the last thirty minutes it was no longer possible to feel any terror, just puzzlement that Kubrick didn't reign in Jack.- Was this review helpful to you?

Jack Nicholson. Fantastic
By LJgrey (10 reviews) , 02 Mar 2013The oldies are always the goodies to watch.... No special effects, just great acting. I would recommend this to anybody that has never seen it before. :D- Was this review helpful to you?
