Movie Reviews of The Shining [Blu-ray]
Movie Review: Blu Ray is the only way for this masterpiece.
Summary: 5 Stars
Okay, I must say. The Shining is an amazing film, it's suspenseful and scary. I will say that the way the atmosphere and and cinematography was really brought up on the Blu Ray transfer. It added more to Kubrick's horror masterpiece. It also has a lot of bonus material to keep the viewer happy. Not only that, it also has a play back option so when you take the disc out and put it back in the movie will play back where you left off which is convenient. The picture could not be any better/ clear. If you want to get the shining, get it on Blu Ray!Movie Review: Blu Ray is amazing
Summary: 5 Stars
This was one of the first blu ray discs I got when I got my HD television. I've been watching this movie since it came out. I've probably seen it 30 times over the years. The step up from DVD to blu ray is as pronounced as the DVD was from the VHS recording off of television. The picture on this new transfer is stunning. By now I've seen enough HD sources to know that this stands out in the crowd. You can almost reach out and touch the Overlook. It's like you're inside the hotel. The sharpness and detail and quality of the light blew my mind.Movie Review: Great blueray, a must purchase
Summary: 5 Stars
I have both the DVD and Blueray. The Blueray disc is phenomenal: outstanding picture quality and the extras it has the DVD doesn't. The most eye-opening feature to me was the commentary steady cam operator Garrett Brown and Kubrick biographer John Baxter; they really gets into the weeds of the actual moviemaking and mindset of Kubrick and provides a fascinating inside look into the filming process. This is definitely a permanent addition to my blueray collection and has increased my awareness and appreciation for Stanley Kubrick.Movie Review: Eye Popping!

Having watched all the new Kubrick Blu-Rays, I can say that "The Shining" is the most surprising. The sharpness and crisp colors just blew me away. WOW! I saw this in the theatre when it came out, and it was nice to finally have it in the widescreen format again. Note - it is 1.78:1, not 1.85:1. It fills the 16X9 screen entirely. I can't recommend this one any higher! Buy it.Movie Review: Get it right...... now!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've heard so many rumours about the aspect ratio of this film. I heard that Kubrick hated the widescreen format because he thought it to be a distraction. I really don't care! Where DVD dropped the ball, here is a chance for Blu-ray to recover and run in in for a touchdown. Put the damn movie out in an HD format in it's original aspect ratio. Nuff said.
