Not so enjoyable nowadays.

Rating: 6/10 (22 July 2015)

You know that solid blue color painting that sold on an auction for 50M USD? My thoughts on this movie are exactly the same. Super heavy trippy video with screaming music at you for 20 minutes can be looked upon as super heavy meaningful moment so deep our minds cant and will not comprehend anything below a scratch of the surface, because its so godlike, or you know it can just actually be a trippy video with screaming music... Definitely leaning towards that. I did expect an awful much from this movie based on its popularity and rating, but received so little in return. I mean i watched it, evolved my theory on the events, read the reviews afterwards and was like "so thats it, nothing else?" 2 hours of music screams for a piece of alien rock to give monkeys a stick and send an astronaut into galaxy school. And all of the events in between not really doing much to advance the plot or develop it. I understand watching an hour of footage of a person flying into a space station and then landing on the moon as it was a normal plane flight between two states would be highly impressive 40 years ago, but we are a bit more spoiled now to admire that with an open mouth. You'd say go watch a brainless thriller like die hard or smth, this movie is actually for those who enjoy using their own brains and think and i'd reply i already thought about everything this movie offers and if it was 15 instead of 140 minutes i wouldn't be missing receiving a thing from it. I read somewhere this movie is more appreciated nowadays than when it came out and could not disagree more. If that was true then this would be the one and only surprise this movie ever provided for me. Sorry for the rant :/
