ABOUT THE FILM

"I don’t think it’s a film for younger people. I think you have to have lived a bit and know what it’s like to feel jealous and upset and have fantasies."
— Katharina Kubrick, interview in Sight and Sound

"Eyes Wide Shut is a clenched sleepwalk through a swirl of overlapping dreamstates. The tension is generated by a once-unflappable man’s urgent search for equilibrium after his wife shares a sexual fantasy that shatters his sense of self and sends him teetering down the rabbit-hole of his own fear and desire."
— David Ehrlich, IndieWire

"a subjective, reality-stretching odyssey, the film is an emotional and atmospheric masterwork."
★★★★★ Danny Lorber, IndieWire

"... a masterpiece of sustained tone, a tightrope act that pays off in rich and unexpected ways."
★★★★★ Nathan Rabin, The AV Club

"Eyes Wide Shut still towers above most of the movies out there, immersing the viewer in a web of emotional complexity, at once raw and personal and, at times, theatrically overcooked."
★★★★★ Liam Lacey, The Globe and Mail

"... has its strongest hold on you when it’s making the least amount of sense."
★★★★ Kenneth Turan, LA Times
