"In the days after it first opened in early 1964, Stanley Kubrick's "Dr. Strangelove" took on the enchanted aura of a film that had gotten away with something. Johnson was in the White House, the Republicans were grooming Goldwater, both sides took the Cold War with grim solemnity, and the world was learning to be comfortable with the term "nuclear deterrent," which meant that if you blow me up, I'm gonna blow you up, and then we'll all be dead. "Better dead than Red," some said. Others said the opposite. The choice was not appealing. The Bomb overshadowed global politics. It was a kind of ultimate hole card in a game where the stakes were life on earth." Roger Ebert I purchased the 40th Anniversary CD and this is my third or forth ... Read More: >>More Details

Average Rating:	2001 - A Space Odyssey [Blu-ray] [1968] starring: Keir Dullea, Gary Lockwood, William Sylvester, Daniel Richter, Robert Beatty directed by: Stanley Kubrick March 03, 2008		List Price: Â£24.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£17.98 You Save: £7.01 (28%) Prices subject to change. Used Price:
This slow, boring at times, movie is a classic. It gets played on my dvd player during bouts of insomnia or drunkeness or when i smokeweed. It has a Terrence Malick feel to it in my opinion; it is a visual tone poem much like Malick movies eg Days of Heaven where there is little dialogue. 2001: A Space Odyssey has barely 40 minutes of dialogue in a 145-minute film. Regarding the plot, we move across centuries, from the birth of man with apes fighting it out to sociopathic Computer Hal taking a crew to Jupiter in a quest to understand a mysterious black monolith that may hold the key to God. Phew. It also follows the adventures of a few astronauts in space and their motivations to mature and reflect on the situation ... Read More: >>More Details

I was half way through watching a clockwork orange when i couldnt help but think what is all the fuss about??. Yes it may be shocking but that is all it is. Some times people for some reason regard controversial films as masterpieces when in trueth they are average. A good performance from the lead but the storyline is patchy and doesnt flow well. The film realise on shocking rape scenes to make up for the awful storyline, maybe a sign of poor filmmaking but thats being way way to critical The only reason i have given "A clockwork orange" 4 stars is because of Kubricks other work such as Full metal jacket and the shining and the fact he is no longer with us influenced my desicion. For this film alone i wouldnt go further than 2 stars just for sheer overated ... Read More: >>More Details

Average Rating:	The Shining [1980] starring: Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd, Scatman Crothers, Barry Nelson directed by: Stanley Kubrick September 10, 2001		List Price: Â£12.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£4.98 You Save: £8.01 (62%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£2.99
The Shining [1980] An ugly, hard-to-stomach horror movie, from Stanley Kubrick, whose sense of taste and feeling for his character have somewhat dulled. His source: Stephen's King's novel, was a horrifing tale, too, but King evokes a sence of concern for his characters which has totally eluded Kubrick's work here. Jack Nicholson is suitably menancing but Shelly Duvall is almost ludricrously weak. >>More Details

the most influential and seminal work to come out of hollywood on modern day warfare . it is both stunning and philosophical with a very pluralistic look at the vietnam conflict where it has no sentimental observations about the victims but just a non chalant attitude to the protagonists who are involved in war as a casual everyday necessity. it is neither patronising nor glorifying just seeking to express the perceived truth from the makers viewpoint and it reaches a celestial height both creatively and artistically . matthew modine gives a great performance but the limelight is stolen by the cameos and short -lived but memorable characters played by a terrific cast of gifted actors . kubricks definitive look at twentieth century war with an innovative narrative ...

I always enjoyed Stephen Kings Novels especially The Shining but the film that is celebrated as the best horror movie is not as good as it could have been.Had Copolla spent more attention to some of the creepier elements of the book ie the topiary animals rather than making Shelley Duvall do a certain scene 20 or so times he could have included so many more images in this film.Jack Nicholsons character goes way over the top and the classic bathroom scene is about the only terrifying scene.After injuring his foot the image of him being a sort of hobgoblin weilding a axe chasing his son didn't cut it for me and the ending was just awful.THe book will always remain a classic but the film could have been so much better. >>More Details

Spartacus is perhaps Stanley Kubrick's oddest film, in that it is 'normal'. It is a Roman epic, one o0f many produced around the 1950s and early 1960s but is one of the better ones. It does not quite measure up to Ben Hur but is still very good. Kirk Douglas, Jean Simmons et al deliver great performances and the battle scenes are more gory than you would expect, and of course there is the now legendary 'I'm Spartacus, I'M Spartacus, I'M Spartacus' scene. It makes for a very entertaining few hours. The film falls short of the great man's other work because of two points: Firstly, it could have been directed by anyone; the obcessive perfectionism and innovatism appear absent it what is a more standard epic. Also, the dialogue is often a bit corny, which given how ... Read More: >>More Details

You may find the title for this review very strange, but there's a good reason why I wrote it. I bought this recent edition of Kubrick's Vietnam war drama a few months ago expecting a great deal of extras to be included there. Specifically, I had seen snippets of the behind the scenes - or making of footage as it's popularly known these days - shot by Stanley's daughter, Vivian Kubrick, during filming of 'Full Metal Jacket'(FMJ) and that she never completed, on 'A Life in Pictures' documentary. Now, that was quite revealing and most promising, as was the 'Making The Shining' documentary that Vivian had also filmed. Thus, I was expecting a lengthier version of it to be featured here. Alas, none of it was included in this disc! Nevertheless, after having recently seen Jon Ronson's documentary 'Stanley ... Read More: >>More Details

'CLOCKWORK' is a remarkable, innovative piece of cinematic anarchy that still demands our attention. However...... ------there are more than enough elements contained within it's incendiaritary frames to merit serious discussion as to exactly WHY it has attained such notoriety...including; -----the very early rape scene; which un-neccessarily lingers for too long on the full-frontal nudity of the 'unfortunate' actress [SHIRLEY JAFFE], ---it is self-evident that this scene involves the smirking, smug, self-satisfied performances of BILLYBOY'S fellow rapists, nondescript actors who clearly can't believe their luck that they are actually being PAID to film this scene [which probably took multiple takes over a long time] ---it is obvious in their triumphant expressions [in which they can clearly ...
