| Just got back from seeing 1408 with John Cusack. It had a lot of potential but |
|
it really fell short of all the rave reviews that I read. It was trying so hard to be the Shining. Sadly disappointed by this one. Anyone else get a chance to see it? Thoughts?

| 1. My first thought was that it would be a rip off of the Shining |

| 2. They really tried to get The Shining feel. The hallways in the hotel looked exactly |
|
like the ones in the Shining. They had some good tension built up and just couldn't sustain it or bring it to a decent conclusion. I'd advise waiting until it comes out on DVD.

| 3. It got really good reviews, but you never know. |
|
I had high hopes for it too. I guess I'll wait for the DVD - thanks for the heads up.
