Stanley Kubrick's best film. * * * * *

Rating: 8/10 (14 June 2002)

"2001:A Space Odyssey" is slow.It is visually awe inspiring.There is a reason I believe that director Stanley Kubrick made the film at such a slow pace.The sequences in which we see the spaceships travel at such a slow speed is probably Stanley Kubrick's way of telling us that we should look at this film without rushing through it."Star Wars" was better in terms of its excitement."2001" was better in terms of its beauty and mysteriosness. I would consider this the best sci-fi film of all time.Stanley Kubrick's vision
is wonderful and still holds up until this very day.I wasn't born in the 1960s and I really don't watch all of his films.I have seen "Paths of Glory","The Shining" and "Eyes Wide Shut".Not to mention a few others."2001:A Space Odyssey" is a film that I could probably relate to.After watching this film,I feel compelled to watch it again.It deserves to be seen again.A classic.
