As I write this, I'm watching "Eyes Wide Shut". I'm a fan of mister Kubrick's work, especially the first 30 or so minutes of "2001". However after watching this movie and comparing it to his other works, it does appear to me that perhaps the best adjective to describe a lot of the scenes in Kubrick films is "ponderous". Seriously, the man has a gift for turning a 3 minutes scene into 10 minutes.
Also, there are a lot of great boobs in "Eyes Wide Shut". Oh and Tom Cruise has a big nose.

The most annoying thing about Mr. Cruise is the way he plays the same character in EVERY movie. It takes some extraordinary writing or directing to make his movies good.
Top Gun, Far and Away, A Few Good Men, Interview with a Vampire... all the same character, but good writing and/or directing overcame that.
Eyes Wide Shut... as brilliant as Kubrick was... he couldn't overcome having Maverick in the lead role.
