Truly one of a kind film. A master piece by Stanley Kubrick.

Rating: 10/10 (27 December 2016)

The first ten minutes of the film invites us to view prehistoric humans in a world thousands of years before civilization and technology. We are then suddenly transported forward in time to the year 2001.
A mysterious monolith is discovered on one of Jupiter's moons and a team of scientists is commissioned to travel there to investigate and report.
What can I say about my idol, Stanley Kubrick? In one word: Genius.
And as for the film: A one of a kind master piece and a must see film for it's attention to detail and realism. One of the very few films made where you don't hear the roar of engine noise coming from the space ship. That's realism.
The score: The Blue Danube by Johann Strauss is unforgettable and mesmerizing.
