Major Disappointment

Rating: Null/10 (7 March 2000)

I watched this movie, really unsure of what it was about. I thought it was a love story, much like the "Story of Us" in which a couple on the verge of splitting re-examines their love. Wrong. It was about a man who is intimidated by his wife's fantasies, so he goes out in a conscious or perhaps unconscious trip to perhaps pay her back by having an affair.
He has several unsuccessful "encounters" with various women, which seems to frustrate him more because he is constantly envisioning his wife with another man.
The only thing that I could make sense out of this movie was that Tom Cruise's character felt intimidated because his wife (Nicole Kidman) confesses while stoned that during a holiday she met a man for whom she would give it all up for.
My husband kept looking at me and asking what was this supposed to mean?
This movie is extremely sexually graphic and really makes no sense,and appears only to have been made just to show Nicole Kidman's naked body. Nothing is really explained. Loose ends are not tied up, and the ending has to be one of the worst I've ever seen.
I have seen adult films with better storylines. I would not recommend this film (?) to anyone.
Save the trip to Blockbuster and watch grass grow.
