Showed this to my mom today. She thinks 2001: A Space Odyssey is the most boring film of all time, she walked out of A Clockwork Orange and she never ceases to complain about every aspect in Dr. Strangelove..... And yet, she was utterly entranced for every second of…

fran hoepfnerJun 17, 2015One of the most interesting things about Barry Lyndon is that he's boring. He's a bit stupid - but not enough for me to feel sorry for him; he's a bit pompous - but not enough for me to hate him; he's somewhat good-looking - but not enough to inevitably draw the eye; he…

sarah squirmNov 25, 2017I maintain now and always that this is one of the great comedies, a slow burn of greed, cowardice and arrogance that depicts an aristocratic structure that creates arbitrary divisions among European nations united in the absurdity of their power hierarchies. The film…

- RayRay likedBarry Lyndon
Don’t have enough words to explain myself. Feels like a video game: the dialogue, acting, background music, visuals, even the narration — lots of fun. Epic experience, would’ve been great in theater. Very pretty (but a tad overrated in that regard) Second half slowed down a bit
boo likedBarry LyndonI couldn’t get through the whole thing cuz I have an attention span of a goldfish but what I watched was good
MovieDaddy lovedBarry LyndonA lot of people call this movie overrated. This movie is exquisite to watch; each shot is a postcard. This one marks the end of an era of cinema before big budget flicks dominated the art form. Slow and methodical; a pure character study.

This film is a masterpiece of cinematography and acting. Every frame is beautiful. This is one of Kubriks greatest pieces of art put to the silver screen. 10/10
manny bobanny is "meh" onBarry LyndonIt may be beautiful. But thats it. Almost 2 hours in, and still felt like I was waiting for something to happen. Did not excite me.
Cam Corri lovedBarry LyndonLong? Yes. But the cinematography, to the acting, to the score, to the makeup, I was still wanting more. Kubrick 🔛🔝.
- Rachie likedBarry Lyndon
I admittedly was growing increasingly annoyed every minute in the first hour the flutes were loudly playing over the dialogue but as soon as the flutes weren’t as prominent, I felt I could enjoy the rest of the film. The candle light and pastoral scenes were obviously stunning. Lady Lyndon had…
Tommy likedBarry Lyndon7,5/10 très bon film de SK, assez inhabituelles par rapport aux autres. L'histoire est intéressante et on s'attache assez bien au personnages de barry. Ce film est un belle critique de la stupidité de l'aristocratie de l'époque mais aussi de la guerre avec des très beaux plans
Jana likedBarry LyndonWhile I found the performances very one note (those dour stares do feel on brand for the time period though) the cinematography is beautiful and I honestly was captivated despite the length, which is all very Kubrick. Not my favourite but glad I took the time to watch it.

absolute perfection
Metacritic
This is a story of identity, and the lack of it. And it’s fascinating.
Tom Huddleston
Time Out London
Between the vast exteriors and candlelit interiors, the expressive authority of Kubrick’s direction is breathtaking.
Kevin Harley
Total Film
It’s a movie that actually makes the past look otherworldly, unlike many period pieces, which strive to make history seem easy to slip into.
