It's on every single best of horror lists. Its not that good.
The Shining

I'm not super fan of the film The Shining either. I thought it was OK. Relatively speaking, good for a horror film. Also wasn't a big fan of Little China either. I my opinion, the gravitas of Kubrick tends to 'overrate' Shining a bit.

The Shining - 8 (hammerfan, roshiq, horcrux2007, The Bloofer Lady, Chronogrl, Sculpt, MichaelMyers, neverending)
Big Trouble in Little China - 1 (The Villain)
Raw Deal - 0

The Shining pulverises it's opponents and scores a very strong win!!
