What does one say about this classic 80s movie? Jack Nicholson nailed this role. I don’t think anyone could’ve played it better. The Shinning was a great thriller With a great story.
 
Every scene with Jack Nicholson is what I love about this movie yeah without him it would've been a boring moving...in fact Jack Nicholson makes every movie more interesting sorta like Bill Murray does have this a 5👍👍
