Unsuccessful with other people, Bill meets an old friend, who tells him of secret invite-only sex parties where one is required to wear a mask. When Bill goes, he finds something more elaborate than his wildest fantasies.

WHAT ARE CRITICS SAYING?

Newsweek by

If some nagging sense of anachronism, a bit too much Freudian Vienna in his postmodern New York, prevents Eyes Wide Shut from being at the top of his list, Kubrick's 13th and last film is his most humane.

ReelViews by James Berardinelli

In terms of power and effect, Eyes Wide Shut approaches (but does not surpass) Kubrick's vintage work - it is thought-provoking and unsettling.

Entertainment Weekly by Owen Gleiberman

The director's famously over-deliberate, pause-laden style verges, for the first time, on amateurville, and that gives us too much time to linger on the movie's more bizarre details.
