I had no idea what it was about, only the sex, but once all the creepy stuff started happening, and the music! I was all in. I didn't start appreciating the lighting until years later, but all in all, this film is a winner on so many levels. I agree with what Justin said, in that each time you watch something else seems to grab you. <br /><br />And that queasy feeling never seems to go away . . .Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01070730445523597957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7130285617231447923.post-44099196478746544442011-05-22T11:00:30.299-06:002011-05-22T11:00:30.299-06:00I just saw this for the first time yesterday and m...I just saw this for the first time yesterday and my head is still spinning. Based on reviews I'd read, I expected the movie to be a bit of self-indulgence on Kubrick's part. So I was unprepared for what I saw. Brilliant! That mixture of growing dread and dreamlike unreality always grabs me, as it did in Mulholland Drive and They Live.pebblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00266823074346515524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7130285617231447923.post-24917710135748089402011-04-21T21:26:56.070-06:002011-04-21T21:26:56.070-06:00this is my favorite Kubrik movie, there is an esse...this is my favorite Kubrik movie, there is an essence of mystery I cant describe in this film, absolute masterpiece, I miss Kubrik : (GUILLEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05116661570196152566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7130285617231447923.post-25624225534347130062011-02-10T16:38:00.241-06:002011-02-10T16:38:00.241-06:00i agree. there are a million little fun things bes...i agree. there are a million little fun things beside the story.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01070730445523597957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7130285617231447923.post-92147164093669675492011-02-10T14:57:26.525-06:002011-02-10T14:57:26.525-06:00This is probably one of my favorite of Kubrick'...This is probably one of my favorite of Kubrick's films. Then again, I'm not a super-huge Kubrick fan, but I own Eyes Wide Shut on DVD, and I won't typically buy a film that I didn't find really interesting. <br /><br />I just love all the little oddities of this film (e.g., the costume shop owner's daughter, the woman professing her love to Cruise's character out of the blue right before her fiance arrives, etc.). You could watch it a hundred times and never be totally sure you understood it all. Where Donald sees this as the film's failing (I think), I think it's the film's strength.<br /><br />Also, like you, I really don't think this is an erotic film.Justin Garrett Blumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15137911263603130588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7130285617231447923.post-10263057506675911512011-02-09T20:21:03.843-06:002011-02-09T20:21:03.843-06:00It's a well made movie about awful, boring peo...It's a well made movie about awful, boring people.

As an adult, I have no all but completely grown out of them. <br /><br />He's a talented director, and a lot of the scenes in this film are quite stunning and exhilarating, but I just didn't get it. At the end of the day, it was just a movie about one guy standing around, doing nothing, and watching a lot of other people, none of whom were entertaining enough to be in a movie. Lots of tits though.Donaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15440887464519504193noreply@blogger.com
