Eyes Wide Shut

I watched Eyes Wide Shut for the first time last night.  I'd not been in a hurry to see it after the lukewarm reviews it got but I was pleasantly surprised.  In some ways I think Kubrick is overrated- his stories are quite weak- but then again there is just something about the way his films are made that makes them interesting to watch.  The only director I can think of that exists at a similar level is David Lynch.
