It might have been a jewel on its time... but now its outdated

Rating: 4/10 (17 March 2019)

If you want to know where some of the inspiration of sci-fi media originated then go for it. But I should warn you it's a really long movie with BARELY something happening.
You have this spectacle of scenes with classical pieces that give you this ominous feeling, yes, but after 4-5 mins contemplating the same image... it gets boring. This happens quite a few times. I must say I'm not a Stanley Kubrick fan since I have watched plenty of his movies and I've liked none... so my opinion is biased.
Still, I say that its outdated in terms of the story. Nowadays media in general, and especially videogames, have expanded the topic "what makes us human" and developed it better.
I acknowledge the fact that it was an inspiration for many many directors and writers but:
-if you like the topic and have been exposed so much to it, i don't think this is for you.
-If you think you can appreciate what it meant in its time, then it is.
