A film carried by visual fascination.

Rating: 8/10 (16 March 2019)

Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece didn't appeal to me personally, because I take an interest in screenplay and story above all, but anybody looking for a philosophical journey in a visually beautiful environment will not be dissapointed. This film is a visual masterpiece and a deep thought provoker. It puts out many ideas - some before it's time. For example - the film contains an AI and an example of how AI can go wrong, but before most people could even comprehend the idea of a smart computer. There are metaphors for death, evolution and so on. To watch this yiu will need to make an evening out of it foe it is 3 hours long, but it is worth it to experience one of the biggest achievments in filmmaking. Some scenes, though beautiful, are drawn out and dialogue only starts about 20 minutes into the film. This film is for you if you prefer the visual aspect of filmmaking, but if not then watch it for it's recolutionary philosophy and ideas.
