This film is not film analysis
"Room 237" is nothing remotely like film analysis that it seems to try to be. Film criticism is about visual styles, atmosphere, storytelling, themes, that sort of thing. It is not about whether a missing Seven Dwarf sticker has any significance. It is not about all these "guessing games" of whether Kubrick really intended this or that, which none of it is significant anyway. This is the perfect example of "reading too much into things" to the point of trivializing many of Kubrick's REAL achievements in the movie.
