Simply an imortal piece of cinematographic art.

When i first watched this movie, all that i could think was "how they did this in 1968?". The movie was realised 9 years before Star Wars, and the space scenes are even more fantastic. The whole scenario of the movie is fantastic, from the beginning to the end. For example, the monkeys scene was shot in front of a white screen, and the background is actually a projection that had to be done by using a glass at a certain angle, so that the image could be directioned to the screen with no shadow from the actors and the scenario on it. A genuine masterpiece that show us that Kubrick really wanted to produce awesome movies.
Puting classic music to play along with the movement of the spaceships is just amazing, as if it was like ballet movements. Also when those songs were composed people didn't even have access to electricity, settling a conexion between this obsolet past with a high-tech future.
The film also introduces us to a man x robot plot, once that Hal, in order to not be turned off and to have the control of the ship, locks the astronauts outside. It's also increadable that, at the edge of the Cold War, Kubrick showed us U.S.A. and USSR working together, showing that we could advance more if we start working together.
The final scene is just the most perfect ending i have ever seen, my jaw was reaching the other side of the planet.
