A spellbinder: provocatively conceived, gorgeously shot and masterfully executed.
A riveting, thematically probing, richly atmospheric and just occasionally troublesome work, a deeply inquisitive consideration of the extent of trust and mutual knowledge possible between a man and a woman.

Report
It is the very preposterousness of Eyes Wide Shut which is the key to the achievement it represents: it has a singular excessiveness - at once gamey, florid and enigmatically deadpan - which underpins this picture's rich, sensuous style.
These scenes of debauchery and lust that make up the film's centerpiece are among some of the most powerful and disturbing ever put to film.
It's a mind-blowing game, and all that nonsense about this being an erotic thriller was merely part of Kubrick's game.
The director's famously over-deliberate, pause-laden style verges, for the first time, on amateurville, and that gives us too much time to linger on the movie's more bizarre details.
It's empty of ideas, which is fine, but it's also empty of heat.
La última obra de Kubrick, estrenada de forma póstuma ya que este último falleció tiempo antes de su llegada a las salas de cine. En términos financieros es la más exitosa de toda su filmografia, en lo personal encuentro que es de sus trabajos más complejos, el cual yo jamás he logrado comprender del todo, pero aún así es fascinante.

Perhaps I need to watch this again. Roger Ebert said it best; "the reconciliation at the end of the film is the one scene that does not work." And he was right, it felt like they had to tie up any loose ends and they had to do it fast as this film was approaching two and half hours. This needs to be watched with some effort as it will be difficult to understand for many. However, the movie is very well done but has its faults. It is an average film with score of 57.1 out of 100.

одним словом - порнуха в ролевой секции, какое-то абсолютно странное кино и очень не похожее на стиль стэнли кубрика
Report
Eyes Wide Shut is very much a divisive movie that, at least IMO, ends up being an uninteresting bore that can't really decide upon what drama it really wants to be. The acting is borderline laughable, as is the dialogue, and it really lacks the stunning camera work and look that Stanley is known for. I very much regret checking this movie out.
