Stanley Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut returns in a stunning 4K restoration from the Criterion Collection, and we’re diving deep into one of the most enigmatic films ever made. In this full review, we discuss the 4K transfer, Criterion’s presentation, and how Kubrick’s final film plays today — thematically, visually, and emotionally. From its hypnotic atmosphere and controversial symbolism to the performances of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, we revisit Eyes Wide Shut and explore why it remains one of Kubrick’s most debated and misunderstood works.
