Near Perfection...Maybe....

Rating: 9/10 (17 July 1999)

I think this is one of stanley kubricks finest movies. The whole thing is a almost perfect piece. From the imagery of the eyes (the closeups, tiredness etc) to the slow still suspense of what some critics call the slow part. That slow part was part of what made the movie. It helped build the suspense, even when there shouldnt be any. I think this was one of Kubricks finest of which the ones ive seen and ive see near all of them (clockwork, full metal, 2001 {shoulda payed better attention, but I purchased the VHS Kubrick collection today and have the dvd widescreen neither ive seen YET :)} The Shining, Dr Stragelove, and I havent yet finished Lolita.......) but as with all kubrick movies u need to view them more than once to get the full effect....
