Jack Torrance (Jack Nicholson) sits at a table and laughs in 'The Shining'
Here's Johnny! Jack Nicholson’s legendary turn in The Shining, Stanley Kubrick’s psychological horror masterpiece, is currently bringing in the viewers on Max as we head into the spooky season and prepare for horror in the best and worst ways possible to the human imagination. Nicholson appears in the movie as Jack Torrance, an author suffering from writers’ block who takes a job as a manager at a Colorado hotel during the frosty off-season.
Is 'The Shining' Worth Watching? Well, it depends who you ask. The Shining currently sits at an 83% score from critics and a 93% rating from general audiences on Rotten Tomatoes. However, ask Stephen King for his opinion. King famously hated the adaptation, he felt the film was soulless, and that the character of Jack Torrance didn't have any development, as he explained to Far Out Magazine.
