*** stars. Good last movie from Kubrick

Rating: Null/10 (11 May 2000)

I don't understand why the critics based Eyes Wide Shut. It was a good last movie by Kubric. Of course he has done better movies but like all his movies, and this one, you must watch every scene and sometimes not understand what he is trying to say. I can just see years from now, this movie will be disected in film classes. Yes, the main topic is sex and everything about it but Kubrick was trying to prove a point. This is the type of movie you must watch again to understand, which you may never fully do.
PLOT: Tom Cruise goes on a sexual journey when he finds out his wife- Nicole Kidman was thinking about cheating on him. He wants to hurt her as she hurt him.
VIEWS: Again, I don't know why the critics bashed Tom Cruise's acting. I think he did a great job as the tormented husband. yes, some of his adventures are surreal but it makes the movie more watchable and a topic of conversation. Maybe because Tom is not usually in this type of role, the critics didn't like it. But they were so praising about his role in Magnolia. I think he did a better job here. Most must open their minds to understand this movie that is total Kubrick. Most of his movies are this way.
SCENES TO WATCH FOR: Orgy scene.
