Negative Positive
Title: Mezmerizing, Provoking, Kubrickian!
Review: I herad a lot of negative reactions to this film before I saw it, most noteably from a good friend who is a huge Kubrick fan. I feared the worst as I rented this film and sat down to watch it.What I got that night was an awesomely engaging and mezmerizing film to which I was completely drawn for the rather lengthy running time. Masterfully done, in a style very reminicent of 2001: A Space Odyssey, this film has an erotic and egmatic feel to it that makes it quite an experience. Cruise and Kidman are electrifying together on the screen.I will admit that the film is slow and deliberate, but if you allow yourself to be drawn into the plot and the characters, this only adds to the suspensful experience. I recommend it to fans of this type of work, but I don't think it will satisfy the everyday moviegoer.See for yourself...
