Ever watch a Kubrick film... on weed...

Rating: 9/10 (1 June 2004)

Just kidding. No, I didn't watch EYES WIDE SHUT on weed but I have seen it many times. It definitely gets better with each repeated viewing. The scenes are so well directed and the pacing is perfect. No wonder it took 15 months to film. One night, I couldn't sleep and EYES WIDE SHUT was on HBO, so I watched the entire movie knowing I had to go to school the next day. I noticed so many things that I didn't notice before. What a grand movie. Really makes you think. You can kiss my butt if you think Tom Cruise is a bad actor and I think this was the start of Nicole Kidman's great roles. She's not just his wife, people. She's an actress. And Kubrick is a fine director. I have yet to see 2001, but I'm working on it.
