BORING.

Rating: 7/10 (8 March 2019)

THIS. FILM. WAS. REALLY. BORING.
I don't get why the pacing is like a pace of a snail. It's excruciatingly slow and makes the film very difficult to enjoy. I got so confused even at the start. I was looking at a black screen when it was starting and I thought it was broken. All I heard was music and a black screen, cool way to start, however it wasn't effective. The highlight that makes this movie however was THE SPECIAL EFFECTS. These effects are definitely Oscar worthy and super impressive for its time. The characters are cool, HAL 9000 is definitely a cold and calculated villain. The movie looks great as well, set designs on that spaceship are always awesome to look at. Cinematography is also great. However, the effects and designs aren't enough to save this movie. Pacing is way too slow and things didn't make sense for me. 7/10.
