One of the greatest films ever made.

Rating: 10/10 (31 October 2002)

I didn't like this movie the first time i saw it, but it had one or two scenes that stuck with me. shortly after my first viewing i put the film on just to see these special scenes, but i found myself watching the whole film from start to finish and rather enjoying it. Since then I've seen the picture about five times and each time i actually enjoyed it more than the last.
Now i'm at a point where every scene in the film seems practically perfect to me. I love every single second of 2001, and believe it to be Stanley Kubrick's finest two and a half hours.
2001 is a slow film, with long visually stunning scenes that look far more realistic than some CGI effects today. Nearly every scene is a classic, in particular the 'Rebirth'
Although often seen as a Science fiction, 2001 is more than that. It's a very philosophical and spiritual film. It asks questions. It doesn't answer them.
