User Review

Felt more like a complimentary special feature of a DVD than an individual film

Rating: 7/10

I saw Room 237 this year at Sundance, and having been a big fan of The Shining, I wasn't sure of what to expect. Room 237 should really be viewed as a complimentary piece to Kubrick's masterpiece, rather than an individual work of art. The makers of this film really didn't do ANYTHING other than edit video clips from various films and then audio-dub over them with people's commentary. That being said, I was impressed by how drawn into Room 237 I actually became as the film progressed. The film outlines different theories on the "meaning" behind The Shining and supports these claims with evidence from the film. Film scholars and die-hard fans of The Shining are going to go nuts over certain parts. The film presented in a VERY entertaining way, mixing elements of humor and suspense. Overall, Room 237 is an entertaining film-about-a- film that goes to show there is always more than meets the eye..
