Quite frankly, I have no intention to watch other Stanley Kubrick (otherwise known as the greatest American filmmaker ever) films after being disappointed by 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Showgirls is one of the most idiotic, lame and stupid movies I’ve ever has the non-pleasure of watching. Elizabeth Berkley attempts to pull off her pitiful character, Nomi, and fails miserably.

The …
