Excellent, Excellent, Excellent!!!

Rating: 10/10 (22 December 2004)

I cannot say excellent enough to describe the excellence of this film. From the beginning with the man-apes discovery of the weapons within their surroundings to the beautiful (and quite possibly, my favorite) ending with the birth of the star-child, I just found this movie entrancing.
Kubrick's style of making such an unbelievable situation seem real within this movie is awesome. Dave's blasting out of the pod into the ship's hatch in complete silence was fantastic, as was the disconnecting of HAL 9000. Such things make a movie excellent, indeed this film is excellent.
11/10!!
