When you’re looking for a new movie to watch, checking out what the critics can say can be helpful, if not definitive. But a lot of the time, what critics enjoy and what general audiences enjoy don’t line up. And then sometimes, the critics get it so wrong that you wonder why anyone ever listens to them about anything.
That’s what we’re talking about today: movie classics that, for whatever reason, were torn to shreds when they first came out.
The Shining
Proud Razzie award nominee
The Shining is now considered a classic horror movie wiht lots of iconic moments to its name: the blood pouring out of the elevator, the creepy twin girls, Jack Nicholson axing through the door… but at the time, critics were lukewarm to negative on this movie, calling it dull, slow, and lacking in scares.The Shining even got a couple of nominations at the Razzies, a parody award show that gives out statues for designation like “Worst Director” and ”Worst Picture.”
The movie was based on a book by Stephen King, and a lot of critics thought the novel was better. The author himself has admitted to not liking the film, although it’s ironically become arguably the most enduring and beloved of the many movies and shows based on king’s work.
