Jesus........... that was crap

Rating: 1/10 (24 July 2005)

I have just watched 2001, eagerly I might say, as so many seem to think its great. I was genuinely bored, no.. I was actually mortified. It's so bad I cannot believe it was even made. The sheer mind numbing boredom made it difficult to sit through let alone understand, which is, of course not hard, as there is no decent plot whatsoever. It is truly awful and although I do agree with one guy that it is visually capable that is no reason to list it anywhere near the top of any list of films.
Please save us from this sort of crap. Applauding it only makes it worse for the movie industry, as some idiots will want to make more like it. Just 'cos Kubrick has made some classics doesn't mean they all are. Clearly this is a case of movie industry sycophants patting each other on the back and thousands of mindless morons agreeing without actually thinking.
Still that's the movie industry!
