***MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS*** 2001: a space odyssey What a film!!Really finding it difficult to describe it in words .I gotta tell you,this film has been haunting me for days!I couldn't sleep thinking how a man could make such a film 45 years back! I'm not kidding 45 years back!!I was really stunned just by its visual effects alone.if u let a guy watch this film knowing nothing about it I'm sure he's not gonna believe this was made way back in the 1968.I have seen many reviews in IMDb slating that it's the worst boring film ever made n all. Common guys I can't understand this.one ought to give at least to its brilliant visual effects!! Now coming to other aspects of the film,2001 is not a regular movie.If u gotta c this flick sure u need to know something about this film before hand.otherwise,I can assure u,it will be dead boring.I won't argue with them,this film is made that way.its extremely slow pace is to accurately portray evolution. There isn't many dialogues that may be another reason why they call it boring.But i wont say that.I see Kubrick's sheer brilliance in this.I just keep on wondering how a man could produce such a classic even with such little amount of dialogues! As i said.its all about evolution.the first evolution taught us to use tools the second got us to the moon and its source was found to be from Jupiter.What exactly Stanley Kubrick had in their vision would be hard to perceive. But whatever they had in their vision,they deserve full credit at least for trying and bringing the cinemascopic thoughts to new levels. And one more thing,always there had been a debate about the greatest director of all time and Kubrick's name rose on all occasions.I didn't knew why,but not now,once I saw 2001.
