The thinking man's science fiction movie

Rating: Null/10 (4 August 1999)

Every detail about this movie is perfect. The music, the special effects (1968?), the writing (or lack of, which is used to it's advantage with WONDERFUL visuals), everything. From the opening with the "OVERTURE" to the ending with the "Star Child", 2001 is a pure masterpiece from the first frame to the last frame. It was this movie that set the way for Star Wars, Star Trek, etc. See 2001 as soon as you can, and think about it for an hour or so afterwards.
