Still as bad the 2nd time around I saw this when it came out and just gave it another shot.
When I originally saw it I spent half the movie laughing at its absurdity. I got a few chuckles the second time, but it mostly consisted of shaking my head how anyone could call this garbage a masterpiece or misunderstood.
Kubrick made some really good movies and some really bad ones. When I originally saw it after wiping away the tears of laughter I knew when the reviews came out many would gush and as it is revisited there are still many that put it on a pedestal only because it is Kubrick and viewed through that prism I understand. I am probably too forgiving for some of my favorite filmmakers, but with Kubrick and especially this movie it is taken to preposterous levels. To each his own, but that is how I see it.
