A brilliant work of art!

Rating: Null/10 (16 January 1999)

Stanley Kubrick proved just how much of a genius he really is when he made this film. Every time I watch this film I'm amazed at the fact that is a film that is so close to perfection. Yes, it is an ambiguous film--I'll admit that the first time I saw it, I didn't really understand it. I thought: this is a total psychedelic sixties movie. But I read many articles that were written about it, and when I saw it again a few years ago, it made perfect sense to me. I think that the best thing about 2001 is that the viewer is left to interpret the "meaning" of this film in his or her own way. Needless to say, the special effects in this film are some of the best ever in a motion picture--and this is a film from 1968. It is one of the best sci-fi films ever and one of the best films of all time. It's one of my favorite films.
