Maybe we should suspend the reductive question, "Is it any good or not?" and acknowledge that it's a fascinating, tantalising film that will continue to be argued about.

It's a movie you should see a second time to appreciate fully its themes of love and lust and trust and truth, but the idea of sitting through it again anytime soon may be about as alluring as eating a hairball.

The result doesn't begin to live up to such pomp; indeed, it is so deliberately paced and so strangely devoid of emotional stakes that maybe it proves that too much control isn't such a good thing.

A delicious, deadpan farce about the fragile masculine ego.

In the final analysis, the marquee names are all that really distinguish Eyes Wide Shut from, say, a really well-photographed installment in the Emmanuelle series.

It's as rich and strange and riveting as any journey he's taken us on, yet it's also familiar in a disquieting way.

The technical and visual command of this movie is captivating -- but it is a minor Kubrick.

This is finally a film that is better at mood than substance, that has its strongest hold on you when it's making the least amount of sense.

Trust Stanley Kubrick to make a sex movie with absolutely no sexual heat but instead with ideas that haunt you.

The film does have that advertised haunting quality, and at least one performance from Kidman, in a supporting, but vital role that's as good as any we're likely to see this year.

At least Fellini pulled out the stops from the first minute when he wanted to get surreal. Here, realism fades into surrealism, then into outright foolishness. Morbidly paced foolishness.

It's empty of ideas, which is fine, but it's also empty of heat.
