This was Kubrick.

Who was a wildly inconsistent chooser of material, but a consistently genius director.

E.g. --

2001: A Space Odyssey was a brilliant work of genius. Some people didn't like it...but it was a fantastic movie.

Eyes Wide Shut was a total waste of time. Some people liked it, but it was a piece of trash.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...

EWS looks better with every passing year. The Kubrick feature that has not held up well is A Clockwork Orange.

“Dr. Strangelove” was a work of genius and “A Clockwork Orange” is one of my favorites. Apart from those two, I didn’t much care for his other stuff.
