Kubrick's last movie.... Pure art

Rating: 10/10 (24 November 2007)

Stanley Kubrick. The god of film-making. His movies is not equivalent to anything else. True art. This movie is a masterpiece. A dream you never want to end. Kubrick really know how to mesmerize us with his unforgettable use of camera and music. He puts the viewer in a state of trance and you don't even know if the things that Bill Harford (tom cruise) experience is a dream or something unexplainable. And that defines Eyes Wide Shut very well. A nonverbal experience. A message from Kubrick which is not even supposed to be explained in words.
It took Kubrick 13 years to deliver Eyes Wide Shut after the release of Full Metal Jacket. In this 13 years Kubrick where very depressed sometimes and he felt like he had a big pressure to perform in his next movie. it had to be a special movie. Not just an average movie.
And then finally when the work with Eyes Wide Shut where finished he died a week later...
And the results: A movie like nothing else & for me the best movie ever made along with 2001: A Space Odyssey
10/10 thank you Kubrick
