What a legacy.Stanley Kubrick's last film was a bomb. Cruise and Kidman were OK in it. Highlight of movie for me was when Nicole Kidman wiped herself after using the toilette.The movie itself was an oddesy through an American city,grimey with sexual exploitation in all forms.In he beginning party scene Nicole faught off being seduced by another Doctor while Tom is being lead away with promises of a threesome.After a colleague dies,Cruise spends time wandering through the streets incountering sexual exploitation everywhere.From the prostitute he goes home with,gives her money,but doesn't sleep with her to the man who pimps his uderage daughter at a costume shop.After meeting a friend who tells him of a party by the rich elite and powerful,Cruise decides to see this for himself and after visiting a costume shop,crashes this party.There he finds a combination masked ball,orgy of what appears to be Satanic worshippers.Having unlimited sex with just about anyone never looked so unappetising before.The whole event looked mechanical.Slaves were used as mere toys for this group of annonomous wealthy powerful {pillars of our socieity.} Cruise barely escapes with his life after it was found out he had crashed it but only at the expense of having a a gorgeous woman take his place for punishment.After ward Cruise reads of a model who has died ofa drug overdose and realizes ht was the woman who took his place at the party.The friend, who told him about this place is missing as well.Cruise confronts a Dr. collegue who was there and is told drop the subject.Don't think about what you saw. Your friend is probably back home with his wife,and as for the model,well she was a junkie and died of an overdose.A pretty bleak movie as you can tell.I really didn't like this film very much.
