Hello Dave....

Rating: 10/10 (25 August 2001)

There too much to say about this film!!!! It genre breaking brilliance! Using relatively unknown actors was great and made this film for some reason more like I was there!?! Kubrick is a legend and will be truly missed within the crazy world that is cinema, Kubrick had this unique element to all his movies especially 2001. I feel I am so lucky to catch this film at the cinema (in May of the real 2001: not quite a Space Odyssey...yet!!!) I didn't once feel like going to sleep! yes I don't deny it is slow paced! But the opening and closing sequences especially blew my mind!!!
THANK YOU KUBRICK
10/10 is the Science Fiction Genre (an easy decision to make!)
