Again the critics don't get it (not yet).

Rating: 10/10 (17 September 1999)

Whenever a new film by Stanley Kubrick opened, the procedure was the same: the critics hated it, the audience didn't like it too much and 5 years later it was generally regarded as a masterpiece. It will be the same with EWS. I'm really surprised by the many ignorant reviews, that have been written on this film. As always Kubrick didn't deliver the film everybody expected. This film is not so much about sex (it's not even sexy), the theme of the movie is fear and how we are incapable of handling sex in the age after the sexual revolution.
Camera work is extraordinary.
