In the Kubrick movie he DOESN'T regain his clarity, he freezes to death still trying to murder his son, the hotel remains standing, and also his psychotic nature is harder to pin down (he never seems like a good or loving father from the start).....

Judging by the new trailer this film looks it is a sequel to the original film ending rather than the book's one.
