She was good in The Others and The Hours. I don't really like her otherwise.

Most economists teach a theoretical framework that has been shown to be fundamentally useless. -- James K. Galbraith

I enjoyed The Hours but I rarely like her in anything.

I like Kidman a bit more than you guys, I guess. For instance, in Von Trier's Dogville. I think she's good when she has a good director. Or at least was. Perhaps botox has ruined her (there are psychological repercussions to fixating one's expression).

Kidman was at her best in Eyes Wide Shut, though that was a case of typecasting.

Yes, I've felt that EWS was a highlight - but I'd have to agree that typecasting was a major effect.
