A sci-fi masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (28 August 2018)

I had the opportunity to see this film in IMAX for its 50th Anniversary and boy am I glad I did. The special effects hold up tremendously well and it's so easy to be absorbed into the brilliant imagery on screen. The master Stanley Kubrick makes every single frame of this film into a beautiful piece of art. HAL-9000 is chilling as one of the best villains in cinematic history. While this movie doesn't give you all the answers one is accustomed to receiving in films, this is part of what makes this film so memorable and impactful. All of science fiction owes a debt to this innovative, remarkable film. 2001: A Space Odyssey truly is one of the best science fiction films ever and one of the greatest films of all time.
