Eyes Wide Shut (1999)

Regrets to Ross, but can't be content with Kubrick's 'conceptual' composition. Sex-crazed pseudo-senile Stanley shows a soft spot for simulated sociopaths and senseless screenplay. Kudos to Cruise, Kidman and cast for convincing characters.

Eyes Wide Shut (1999)

Poor ol' Tom, dude just wants to get laid. I can't quite put my finger on what I like about Eyes Wide Shut, but it seems to get better with every watch. Taken literally, it's pretty damn silly, but on a conceptual level, it explores some interesting themes in a very unique way.
