Kubrick's worst

Rating: 4/10 (3 June 1999)

I am a big Stanley Kubrick fan. A Clockwork Orange and Dr. Strangelove are two of my all-time favorite movies. However, I had to force myself to watch Barry Lyndon. It was three hours of my life that I'll never get back. The cinematography was outstanding, but the story was overrated and the plot was dull. I can usually appreciate movies for what they are, but it's unfair to expect anyone to sit through this movie and get anything out of it other than wasted time. 4/10 (it's only that much because of the cinematography and because it's Kubrick)
