    I haven't seen it yet. I thought The Boondock Saints had a much larger following than that though. I'm surprised to see it with just 8 votes.

    Eyes Wide Shut is one of the best movies of the decade and of all time, in my humble view.

    Yeah, I will get to it. I'm not sure why, but I remember the trailers not interesting me for whatever reason. I remember when it came out people made a bigger deal about Cruise and Kidman doing sex scenes together than anything else about the film.

    I like Eyes Wide Shut a lot, but it's on the lower end of Kubrick for me. Hard to beat Paths of Glory and Dr. Strangelove!

    Definitely.
    (I am not a fan of Eyes Wide Shut at All; always wondered what people saw there. Hopefully we all, may and others who love it, can have a talk somewhere about it)
