If you look up "overrated" in the dictionary, you'll find a definition of the word "overrated." Which Kubrick is.

I have to say for the most part I like Kubrik. ..but that's as far as I'd go (holistically). There are films of his I adore, like Paths of Glory , Clockwork Orange and Strangelove. Metal Jacket was good but to be honest didn't move the earth for me and I feel that is over rated. Everything else I can leave. I hated the Shining.
Sharppie is my best friend.

Fairly rated: The Shining, Dr Strangelove, Lolita, Barry Lyndon, Full Metal Jacket. ----> Its all good.
Overrated: 2001 (at least its dated as fuck), Clockwork (clockwork is good, but not that good. Its one of his best known films. Why? Because of the violence? The first half of the film is beyond great. The second half is not)
Underrated: Eyes Wide Shut (if you hate this film, you are kind of retarded). Paths of Glory is also a bit underrated if you ask me. The imdb score is high, but most people forget about it. Its one of his best films.

A somewhat interesting story that serves as a slow-build leading to one of the best photographs I've seen in cinema. They'd do the money-shot with CGI, these days.
EDIT: I don't remember the horse thing. Just the money shot.

Pardon me if I sound stupid, but what do you mean by jib? After a quick google search all I came up with is this: ประสิทธิภาพ ท่านสามารถเลือกซื้อสินค้าที่มีคุณภาพ ราคาถูก ...
