Eyes Wide Shut, sadly the only last touch of Stanley Kubrick before he passed away. A 1999 we witness the last Stanley Kubrick film of the 20th century. As I may be five years old when it was released, and witness it in my adult years. I find this film yet to be sad because he is one of the greatest and my favorite directors of all time. From a killer kiss to eyes wide shut. Once again by its rich cinematography that Stanley Kubrick always brings do all of his films which story telling rich screen writing. And possibly one of the best acting do woes I have ever seen. Nicole Kidman the leading actress plays a wife to her former husband in real life Tom Cruise. If you really want to see Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's best acting this film is it. This is my absolute favorite performance of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman really rich I have never ever seen a good movie that they ever done in their wives when I saw this the first time this is a truly and yet sexually active masterpiece I have ever seen in my life. People say this is just a porn film by Kubrick. As I really don't care about the sexual mine of this film. What really brings of this film is a father trying to abandon his wife that's how I see in this film and that's what really was the strong characteristic of this film. Like if you see in the shining you have a father that wants to kill his wife and son. As for eyes wide shut, we see a father wanting to do more than caring for his family, for abandoning a bad trace that will bring into his life.

Is filmed that he was post to do after eyes wide shut was artificial intelligence. But then Steven Spielberg to go over the project to bring in a friends work of art. I believe the film was OK when I first saw artificial intelligence directed by Steven Spielberg, I believe it was OK but it didn't have that Kubrick touch. But then again Steven Spielberg is a good friend to Stanley Kubrick and mentor to cinema. I thought it was very sweet for Steven Spielberg making a film that he really didn't care to do but just for I departed friend. For eyes wide shut this is a unique way of storing telling about building a family. Stanley Kubrick had many steppingstones to Cinema, and hell I believe that they should have a statue in his honor. It is very sad that he had many projects after eyes wide shut but never got to do it. And as for Stanley Kubrick he is one the most interesting yet One of the most versatile unique directors or storytellers that I've ever witnessed by watching film. Stanley Kubrick is the best and I suggest that you should see all of his films because they are truly masterpieces. Same as eyes wide shut the last symphony that he ever played.

Grade.

A perfect 10.
