Bog standard Spielberg adventure coated in a shit ton of nostalgic referencing, all elevated by his acute cinematic knowledge. Who else could have the balls to drop The Shining in the middle of all this, and what a drop it is.

Having just finished the book was eagerly anticipating this and understood the changes from book to screen that needed to be made either from a stylistic standpoint or simply due to rights issues. That said the film just gave me a warm sense of nostalgia throughout and made me feel happy and entertained, and thats what its all about.
