What's the f ucking point?

Did Kubrick's consolation gift of lots of nudity at least amuse you?



Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride

I saw it when it was released in theaters. The hype was immense, and I hated the movie. I thought that it was slow moving and I didn't "get it" at all. I thought that it made no sense. Maybe a second viewing now, many years later would give me a different impression. But, meh. Don't care if I ever see it again. Oh well, to each his/her own!

It's a character study of their relationship and how it almost goes off the rails. To this day I still consider it to be one of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's best performances. Also there was the visual style that was uniquely Kubrick. No, Kubrick films are not for everyone, and it doesn't mean there is something wrong with you if you don't get it. They just have a very particular style.

its about the illuminati how do you not get it???

I've attempted many times to give this movie another chance. There's just nothing there. A beautiful film to look at with no coherent story to speak of.

Exactly.

This planet is a mess, and no matter how many times and ways someone tries to tell you the truth, your eyes keep being widely shut. You simply WON'T see the truth, not if it's told in a subtle way with big hints (The Shining), and not when t's literally shown almost exactly how it is (this movie).

Your eyes are wide shut.. you not only don't get the point, but you WON'T get the point.

That's the point.
