JoMoCo : " out on the lamb again"
“The Shining” meets “Ghost Ship” — and the meeting doesn’t go well. There are some nice sets and shots, but the story is confusing as hell, jumping back and forth between different decades. We get some bits of interesting backstories for each of the lead couples, which might have added a lot of depth to things had the film just tried harder to flesh them out. As it is, there’s more of a feeling that we, the audience, have started watching in the middle of a story instead of near the beginning; pieces are missing, making us guess. Not a terrible movie, but it’s not as good as either of the films it heavily leans into.
