Stanley Kubrick's final film

Rating: 6/10 (16 January 2013)

This is a compelling movie that has a bit of suspense and sexual aspects to it. Like some Stanley Kubrick's other films this is one of those movies that is kinda uncomfortable to watch. The portrayal of sexual thoughts between William Harford(Tom Cruise) and his wife Alice(Nicole Kidman) is interesting. This is a very provocative film that has to do with psychotic and sexual thoughts and behaviors. It isn't one of Kubrick's best work though but still a engaging movie from beginning to end although it can be messed up sometimes. Actually a lot of times. Although it lacks the impact in most Kubrick's films his pacing and way of revealing certain elements as the movie progresses is well crafted. And also knows how much to show and how much to leave in the audiences imagination.
6.9/10
