      Rob Gonsalves Rob's Movie Vault My suspicion is that, as Kubrick got older, he didn’t do research so that he could make movies; he made movies (or ended up not making them) so that he could do research. Rated: A Sep 22, 2022 Full Review Bill Chambers Film Freak Central ...Ultimately satisfies as a digest version of Taschen's must-have coffee-table book. Sep 14, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

      Audience Member This is a must see for any Kubrick fan... but even if you're outta sheer curiosity it is still very much interesting. Even more so than what is inside but why and the magnitude of it all... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member This fascinating documentary starts as almost a quirky, unique look inside Stanley Kubrick's world. As it unfolds, however, we begin to see deep into his process and come to a better understanding of who the legend was. Other documentaries (most notably, Kubrick: A Life in Pictures) delve into his works, but fail to reach the man behind them in a meaningful way. By the end of Boxes, I really felt the weight of his world and the sadness of his absence. Jon Ronson, the director of this doc, deserves great praise for his dedication (over 5 years) and skillful cutting of sound and images. There's even a look into unseen footage from the never-produced Full Metal Jacket documentary and some other rare behind the scenes tape. I'm very glad to have found this gem! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member This probably the best documentary on Stanley Kubrick's style and work. It explores Kubrick as a person as well the way he worked and why he worked in that way. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member If you fancy yourself a fan of Kubrick you'll like it and find some of the stuff very interesting. If you're not a fan then you should go jump off a building, seriously Kubrick owns and you should know about him!! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Shows how obsessive Kubrick was about research. Asides from little amount of actual footage of the man, I found it quite boring. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Erittäin mielenkiintoista, mutta tässä oli kyllä toteutus vähän tylsä.
