Eye opening journey into a perplexed relationship.

Rating: 7/10 (16 May 2000)

Stanley Kubrick's final film is far from the mainstream. In spite of pre-release praise, the movie fell short with the critics. Sexually graphic and with a script minus hard censorship, this movie explores a marital relationship that thrives on sex.
Tom Cruise plays a doctor, who believes that his lovely wife has been unfaithful. Although it was only a mental fantasy on her part; the doctor goes wandering the streets of New York on a sexually driven quest.

Nicole Kidman is ravishing. Not only is she a believable actress; her nude scenes will dare you to blink. Clothed or not, Miss Kidman dominates her scenes.
Sydney Pollack was flawless. Julienne Davis deserves applause for most beautiful corpse. WOW!
It may take a second or third viewing to absorb this whole odyssey into sexual opportunities. The length of the movie is worth it in the long run. After all, a Kubrick film is art to be enjoyed.
