This movie shows why space movies should never obey the laws of physics...

Rating: 2/10 (18 August 2000)

I love movies. I am a HUGE Sci-fi fan (not just "matrix" and other quasi-SF, but books like "Dune", "Neuromancer" and the like.) But I HATED 2001. There were bits I liked, liked most of the interactions with HAL, and some of the imagery. But the whole HAL-kills-the-spacewalker scene was B-O-R-I-N-G. I laughed, it looked so bad.
OK, I know this movie was made 25 or more years ago, but it's still funny.
I feel this movie is overrated, over-analyzed and WAAAAY over-discussed. I even found the book garbage, but then I was never a big Arthur C. Clarke fan.
I would recommend "Event Horizon" to those looking for a "space-horror" that really makes you question what might be out there.
