A deftly-created sci-fi masterpiece! Kubrick at his best

Rating: 10/10 (2 January 2015)

Being released in 1968 does make this film old but it remains gold. It is undoubtedly fully deserving of the number 1 spot on my list of top movies of all time. The score is finely tuned and adjusted to the visual imagery in the film. Visually, Stanley Kubrick takes us to new extents and shows us unimaginative aspects of nature. The space looks absolutely haunting and breathtaking even though the movie was released as back as 1968. The movie may come as a confusing tale to some folks, but nevertheless its complexity is fully necessary to give the viewer the ultimate pleasure of the whole wide space. The movie is very thematic and raises up larger than life questions which define our place in the universe, our struggle for supremacy, our evolution.
In the end, Stanley Kubrick has brought us with a film which is unforgettable and is sure to create buzz for times to come.
My score : 10/10
