plot : two teen couples go to a church party , drink and then drive .
they get into an accident .
one of the guys dies , but his girlfriend continues to see him in her life , and has nightmares .
what 's the deal ?
watch the movie and " sorta " find out . . .
critique : a mind - fuck movie for the teen generation that touches on a very cool idea , but presents it in a very bad package .
which is what makes this review an even harder one to write , since i generally applaud films which attempt to break the mold , mess with your head and such ( lost highway & memento ) , but there are good and bad ways of making all types of films , and these folks just did n't snag this one correctly
.
they seem to have taken this pretty neat concept , but executed it terribly .
so what are the problems with the movie ?
well , its main problem is that it 's simply too jumbled
.
it starts off " normal " but then downshifts into this " fantasy " world in which you , as an audience member ,
have no idea what 's going on
.
there are dreams , there are characters coming back from the dead , there are others who look like the dead , there are strange apparitions , there are disappearances , there are a looooot of chase scenes , there are tons of weird things that happen , and most of it is simply not explained .
now i personally do n't mind trying to unravel a film every now and then , but when all it does is give me the same clue over and over again , i get kind of fed up after a while , which is this film 's biggest problem .
it 's obviously got this big secret to hide , but it seems to want to hide it completely until its final five minutes .
and do they make things entertaining , thrilling or even engaging , in the meantime ?
not really .
the sad part is that the arrow and i both dig on flicks like this , so we actually figured most of it out by the half - way point , so all of the strangeness after that did start to make a little bit of sense , but it still did n't the make the film all that more entertaining .
i guess the bottom line with movies like this is that you should always make sure that the audience is " into it " even before they are given the secret password to enter your world of understanding .
i mean , showing melissa sagemiller running away from visions for about 20 minutes throughout the movie is just plain lazy ! !
okay , we get it .
. .
there are people chasing her and we do n't know who they are .
do we really need to see it over and over again ?
how about giving us different scenes offering further insight into all of the strangeness going down in the movie ?
apparently , the studio took this film away from its director and chopped it up themselves , and it shows .
there might 've been a pretty decent teen mind - fuck movie in here somewhere , but i guess " the suits " decided that turning it into a music video with little edge , would make more sense .
the actors are pretty good for the most part , although wes bentley just seemed to be playing the exact same character that he did in american beauty , only in a new neighborhood .
but my biggest kudos go out to sagemiller , who holds her own throughout the entire film , and actually has you feeling her character 's unraveling .
overall , the film does n't stick
because it does n't entertain , it 's confusing , it rarely excites and
it feels pretty redundant for most of its runtime , despite a pretty cool ending and explanation to all of the craziness that came before it .
oh ,
and by the way , this is not a horror or teen slasher flick . . .
it 's just packaged to look that way because someone is apparently assuming that the genre is still hot with the kids .
it also wrapped production two years ago and has been sitting on the shelves ever since .
whatever . .
. skip it !

Solution: N
Why? The phrases used in the review convey a negative sentiment (e.g. "presents it in a very bad package").

New input: eyes wide shut is n't the masterpiece many were hoping to see in stanley kubrick 's final film , but it is an impressive achievement ; a mesmerizing , haunting , adult psychodrama about marriage , fidelity and sex .
it 's a stanley kubrick film from beginning to end , consistently exhibiting the auteur 's trademark penchant for long , continuous takes , his unparalleled deftness behind the camera and his uncanny ability to extract gorgeous performances from his exhausted cast ( indeed , eyes wide shut attained infamy even before its release for its notoriously laborious shoot : kubrick , a renowned perfectionist , reportedly held his cast " hostage " on the set for nearly a year ) .
in an uncharacteristic maneuver , kubrick cast two big - name stars in the lead roles , namely real - life husband and wife tom cruise and nicole kidman .
they play bill and alice harford , a volatile couple who , during the course of a couple nights , ponder the validity of the idea that a husband and a wife must be faithful to each other .
he is an m .
d .
, she 's unemployed and we are introduced to them as they are getting ready to go to a fancy party .
at the affair , they are both propositioned and both nearly succumb to the temptation to play around with someone else .
when they return to their lavish new york apartment kidman ( after smoking a dash of weed ) inquires whether her husband had sex with two models who approached him during the night .
he ( truthfully ) says that he did not and asks what happened with that hungarian guy she was dancing with .
they proceed to argue until alice tells her spouse a lustful story : evidently some time ago , she had a thing for a young naval officer .
she admits that she was ready to give up her whole future with bill and their young daughter if this guy wanted her even for one night .
bill is jolted by alice 's story and we anticipate his reaction , but at that moment he gets a phone call and has to go " show his face " at the house of a just - deceased patient .
this turns out to be the beginning of a long and eventful night on the town .
the daughter of the dead patient hits on him
but he wisely turns her down .
he almost does the dirty deed with a kindly hooker who approaches him on the street .
then , through a series of coincidences , he winds up at a gothic mansion where a ritualistic ( and frankly , creepy ) orgy takes place , with costumed people performing various public sex acts on each other .
erotic dread mounts as cruise ( who 's not supposed to be there ) wonders the spacious halls watching the " action " until he is discovered to be an outsider .
much hoopla has been raised over the fact that warner bros .
digitally edited the orgy scene .
with the help of a computer , they put in cloaked figures to block some of the actual sex acts ( they can still be seen , just not in all their glory ) in order to avoid the dreaded nc-17 rating .
european viewers will see the film as kubrick envisioned it .
roger ebert calls the american version the " austin powers version , " and many others have bashed the alterations .
i am of the potentially controversial opinion that the figures only supplement the scene 's mystical atmosphere .
the first thing one notices about eyes wide shut is how it looks .
this is an artful , distinctively gorgeous production , shot in dark , moody hues and featuring some elaborate , beautiful scenery .
from the giant mansion used in the film 's centerpiece to the decor at the christmas party to the harford 's apartment , this film is always a pleasure to look at .
to boot , a great soundtrack makes it more atmospheric still .
at the core , behind the graphic , controversial content and unappealing mood , this is a good - natured movie that emphasizes the importance of fidelity .
it looks at sex as almost perfunctory by portraying it as unnerving rather than erotic .
it 's something superficial and yet something necessary to achieve a deeper relationship .
at the end , it seems , bill 's eyes are wide open to the special kind of love he and his wife have for each other , more meaningful than anything he could ever hope to find on the streets of new york .
kubrick
elicits wonderful performances from both cruise and kidman .
tom is completely convincing as dr .
harford , a man who seems guided solely by destiny , with no control of the course his life will take .
nicole projects a quiet intensity as the jittery yet aggressive wife and her performance is stunningly effective
: she 's headed for an oscar nod .
the movie has some help from a similarly strong supporting cast , at the head of which is director - cum - thespian sidney pollock , enigmatic and articulate as harford 's mysterious friend .
eyes wide shut is not perfect : the last hour could have used a slightly more scissor - happy editor and both cruise and kidman are too good- looking for me to believe that either would have a very strong temptation to philander .
still , this is an important work from a great director , and while it may not be on par with some of stanley kubrick 's best it is a worthy final film , a complex exploration of jealousy and faithfulness . ?
