I'm not going to hide, that it's my favorite one, nor I will brag about it. I like to think, that most movies can be compared by how they succeed on different levels, which for me are: story, characters, sounds, picture, acting, philosophy, psychological impact. I'm still not sure if they all are equal, and anyway Space Odyssey succeeds in most of them, but if we consider the later two levels to be slightly more important, Space Odyssey becomes an ultimate movie. It might not be a movie at all actually, Space Odyssey is more likely a message (an important one) to humanity. It's also a half-encrypted one, which allows you to create a meaning, while still guiding you somewhere. Maybe that's why everyone after watching it has a slightly different interpretation, but main questions and ideas that arise in our minds are the same.
We are all humans after all, and we are all here, spinning at a very fast speed on this funny round thing we call Earth and which has been our home for a very very long time. There might be a lot people, who after watching Space Odyssey, say it was boring and they just wasted their 'precious' time, but you can be sure - message was delivered. Kubrick was a genius, but so are we all
