I´ve seen Eyes Wide Shut this afternoon and I'm still totally stunned.I always thought Clockwork Orange would be Kubricks masterpiece and it still is,but this movie almost gets on a par with it.This movie totally absorbs you!I didn't turn my head away from the screen for the 160 minutes the movie was long. Colors,camera angles,screenplay,costumes and acting were on the highest level possible.Cruise's performance is absolutely superb.I didn't doubt on his character for a single second. Kidman is also great.Many people say it is slow paced and boring,but I think this movie has some great moments of huge suspense,as there are so many mysterious moments.Most people just didn´t understand this movie.The locations are fascinating. The cafes and the club had a very special atmosphere,as well as the houses.Kubrick just knew how to give his movies the best possible look.The story is simple and complex at the same time and the characters are sometimes surreal and sometimes totally near to real life.All in all this movie is a masterpiece of movie history and I recommend it to anyone who's matured enough to see it(which hasn't got anything to do with age,but with intelligence).I don't know the censored version,but I think you should try to see the european version. 10/10
