Its a different type of Kubrick movie. A cinematic masterpiece. It was shot to almost look like artwork. The story has some issues, but I tend to focus on how it was shot. If you're looking for a action adventure movie, probably not the best choice; but if you are in the mood for great imagery, I would recommend it. highly.

Barry Lyndon persists to be one of the most enthralling artistic pieces of all time. A moving painting in every frame and a Citizen Kane style story of rags to riches to rags again, Barry Lyndon plays out to be one of Kubrick's finest perfections.

I'm torn between this and 2001. Both are absolute masterpieces. This film encompasses a broad spectrum of emotions. From birth to death to comedy to romance, it has it all. An amazing movie from an amazing director.
