Eyes Wide Shut

I am still trying to figure out why this movie took so long to film! Is Tom Cruise's acting so bad that it took him 2 years to look like he was interested in heterosexual sex?
This movie has its fans but I am not one of them. The whole movie plays like this could be a dream or not. The last shot on the bed is just a big WTF moment.
I can not believe people did enjoy this movie. I don't think the movie would have 1/2 the fans or positive reviews if someone else directed this movie.
The movie was the the end of 2 things. Tom Cruise Marriage to Nicole Kidman & it was the last movie the Stanley Kubrick directed. The only thing that seem to survive this mess was Nicole Kidman. She went on to win an Oscar. Tom went on to jump on couch's.
For years people wanted the International Cut released in the United States. I saw
the international cut in 1999 in Canada. Trust me its just two digital images are removed(they were added to get the movie an "R" Rating in the USA) from an orgy party. This is all it was! If you already own a DVD do not buy another edition. Give the $20 to charity.
