Barry Lyndon is one of the most captivating single-man journeys I've ever endorsed. The coinciding messages about the effect poverty or wealth can have upon an individual's character, ambitions, and actions are marvelously exhibited. The film's finale is as exhilarating as it is inventive, and proves itself as one of Kubrick's finest cinematic sequences. The narration the movie offers however, feels glaringly unecessary, but despite that, every other aspect of Barry Lyndon is all you could ever hope for in a Kubrick gem. (Verdict: A)

An Irish rogue wins the heart of a rich widow and assumes her dead husband's aristocratic position in 18th-century England. Barry Lyndon is the perfect example of a film that doesn't belong on the Top 250 movies of all time cause it's literally 185 minutes of absolute nothing and just royal people having dinner and talking to each other like seriously? what is so special about this film? The acting was horrible, the screenplay was horrible and worst of all? The film's characters are beyond boring to death and movies like this don't belong to be here at all. (0/10)

I like long movies with a good story because they pull you in and don't let go until it says THE END. This is time well spent in the world of entertainment. This movie has that quality and the story is unusual with twists of interest along the way. Good acting and directing make this a comfortable watch and viewer is not disappointed going from scene to scene to conclusion. Get used to men wearing power, rouge, false dimples and lace and women being objects of use and status making this viewer say what a strange world to visit with. Yet this world existed and this is one of the many stories to come across. Good movie to eat with while watching with a snack and tasty drink too...Get ready for...

When I was a senior in HS a friend & I saw this movie in 1976--a stretch for me, as I've never been a fan of either Stanley Kubrick or Ryan O'Neal. But this movie blew me away--the story line, cinematography, scenery, narration, costumes, acting, everything was just wonderful. There was a lot of publicity building up to the movie because Kubrick was using Marisa Berenson, a top model with little to no acting experience, who did a terrific job as Lady Lyndon. Ryan O'Neal was also pretty good, his Irish accent wasn't too bad.For some reason, Barry Lyndon was rarely shown on TV & I had to buy the DVD so I could watch it a few times a year. I'm amazed at the number of people who have never even heard of this movie; I recommend it whenever the subject of movies comes up.
