2001 is a great movie, like it or not

Rating: 10/10 (22 February 2006)

I loved this movie and found it to be challenging to the norm, challenging to relate to; and challenging to the average viewer's patience!
This is also what I've been reading in some of the naysayer's reviews. This post (and rating) are a panacea to all that hootenanny because I found the challenges in this movie have rewards. What puzzles me is how many of these reviewers have been clearly moved in some fashion, but because it is not what they expected they trashed the rating. I have seen very good movies that I did not enjoy or identify with personally, but I will always give credit where credit is due. Rating this movie at a 1 or a 2 is not fair or objective.
