THE benchmark for sci-fi

Rating: Null/10 (5 November 2002)

This is the benchmark for all future sci-fi films and gave birth to such films as Star Wars and Alien. The movie world was turned on it's ear when this film came out as a visually stunning and thought provocative film. Never before had a film brought to life with such stunning realality the future of space exploration and what it might be like to live and work in space. With it's groundbreaking effects this film allowed future directors to bring to life more imaginative films and expand the sci-fi world.This is without a doubt the film that Stanly Kubrick will be most identified with and rightly so.
