Each of Kubrick's films get better with each viewing and this is no exception

Rating: 10/10 (17 July 1999)

Stanley Kubrick truly is a genius. All of his movies have been extremely exciting and they only get better with each viewing. Eyes Wide Shut is no exception to the master's work. The only sad thing about this movie is that this is the last film he will ever make. And what an ending it was. He shocked people with Clockwork Orange and frightened them with 2001 Space Odyssey and The Shining. Eyes Wide Shut is not about sex, which is what the previews would have you believe, rather it is about paranoia. The paranoia of trusting a spouse. Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman both give performances of a lifetime. Nicole finally gets the credit she deserves. Kubrick fans will not be disappointed by his final film. Kubrick's last film is not to be missed and only gets better with each viewing.
