Stanley Kubrick's daring last film is many things. It is a compelling psychosexual journey. A haunting dreamscape. A riveting tale of suspense. A major milestone in the careers of stars Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. And "a worthy final chapter to a great director's career" (Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun Times).
Cruise plays Dr. William Hartford, who plunges into an erotic foray that threatens his marriage - and may even ensnare him in a lurid murder mystery - after his wife's (Kidman) admission of sexual longings. As the story sweeps from doubt and fear to self-discovery and reconciliation, Kubrick orchestrates it with masterful flourishes. Graceful tracking shots, controlled pacing, rich colors, startling images: bravura traits that make Kubrick a filmmaker for the ages are here to keep everyone's eyes wide open.

Nothing at all like 'Full Metal Jacket'. - 2.75 out of 5 (2/21/2002)
I am a huge fan of Nicole Kidman. Not just because she is drop-dead beautiful - she is that, obviously, but she is also talented. She is one of the few women in Hollywood these days that truly can act. And, I idolize Stanley Kubrick. Indeed I have idolized Stanley Kubrick since the age of 14. So, put the two together and, you'd think, they can't possibly miss.
They missed.
'Eyes Wide Shut' certainly has its moments, but overall it was a huge disappointment - and that's the most polite way I ca
