The best film one could imagine about sexual addiction...

Rating: 9/10 (12 September 1999)

Maybe Kidman and Cruise are not the best actors to play the role of the couple in the film, but maybe Kubrick had some second thoughts of having them play their own parody (in fact: what movies do we know them from, up to now???) It is a shame that this film is obviously being censored in the US. You miss an important part of the story then. It does not have something to do with age to be able to see this film not as a primitive porn but with intelligence. Maybe it would help to read Arthur Schnitzler's "Traumnovelle" (dream novel) first, on which this film is based (see Bobby Elliott's comment).
I give it a 9/10.
