Finally. Someone who agrees with me. Another boring film which could've been almost halved if Kubrick didn't feel the need to salivate over every scene and try impose his musical taste on us like a brattish teenager who plays his headphones too loud on the bus.

It got a great deal of critical acclaim and it's still making a lot of money.. so word of mouth must be keeping it going..
