I actually liked it bc it put you on the edge anyway in the beginning,he reminds me of my own father ,you always didn’t know what side your getting borderline serious or dark humor type guy .The cinematography is top notch but Kubrick screwed up the story by making it seem like Jack was nuts before ever going to the hotel. What I remember from the book was that he accidently broke Danny's arm over something while drinking but wasn't really nuts but on the verge of being a full blown alcoholic.
