Rating: 5/5 --
Every frame of every battle scene or courtly interlude is exhaustively and exquisitely detailed.

Rating: 5/5 --
Barry Lyndon is, despite its rigorous construction, also among Kubrick's more emotionally engaged films.

Irish Times
There are gorgeous homes and landscapes aplenty, duels, wars, balls -- Kubrick is wonderful on big scenes and small details -- but the big detail of people and why they do what they do has been lost in the shuffle.

Rating: 5/5 --
One of cinema's most heartfelt and sustained (it runs over three hours), if cynical, visions of an individual's powerlessness.

It's a stunning, sumptuous and sustained meditation on man's ultimate powerlessness.

The List
One of the most beautiful of all Stanley Kubrick’s films, originally released in 1975, this slyly savage tale of social climbing in the 18th century is also arguably his funniest.

Product Description:
BARRY LYNDON is Stanley Kubrick's epic costume drama based on William Makepeace Thackeray's picaresque novel. It tells the story of a young rogue who wanders through life getting lost in various adventures, meeting his share of women and oddball characters. When Redmond Barry (Ryan O'Neal, trying desperately to maintain an Irish brogue) becomes jealous of Captain Quin's advances on Barry's beloved cousin, he challenges the man to a duel. Winning the duel, young Barry is forced to leave his home and his mother, and off on his adventures he goes. He meets thieves, lonely soldier brides, Prussian army leaders, and British widows, inventing new stories about himself at every turn of the road.
BARRY LYNDON is lush and magnificent, sparkling with color, every frame reminiscent of the finest European art. The blues of the Prussian army uniforms and the reds of the British contrast sharply with the majestic green land and mountains in nearly every background. Kubrick often begins a shot close in, then zooms out to reveal the beautiful natural landscape and ornate rooms surrounding the now seemingly insignificant characters. With rousing performances from O'Neal, Marisa Berenson, Hardy Kruger, and Leonard Rossiter, jaw-dropping camerawork, spectacular natural lighting, and a marvelous classical-music soundtrack painstakingly put together by Kubrick, BARRY LYNDON is a dramatic romantic epic that may be Kubrick's most beautiful film.
