Read the book!

Date of Review:  May 2, 2000
Review: Stabley Kubrick adapted Arthur C Clarke's classic book into a motion picture.

Essentially, it is a story of three monolith's and their contribution to mankind. One inspires prehistoric man; the second is on the moon awaiting man to find it;...

2001? - Huston, we have a problem

Date of Review:  May 14, 2000
Review: When this movie was released (yea, I was around and a full-fledged adult then) the year 2001 seemed beyond my realm of reasoning. Now, half way through the year 2000, with the year 2001 peeking over the horizon, I decided to take another look at a...

What the Future Looked Like,and What Film Art Can Be

Date of Review:  Jun 17, 2000
Review: The meaning of the movie:

A display of man's evolution from lower life form to human form, then to supra-human form. The "light show" portion of the movie is to represent the notion that such a translation of the notion of "the Next Step...

2001: perfection

Date of Review:  Jul 12, 2000
Review: When someone thinks of a science fiction movie one tends not to think of such a thought provoking film. It is completely mistifying to some, an absolute harmony of music, special effects, deep thought, and questioning as to what our place in the...

As realistic as Science Fiction gets......

Date of Review:  Nov 8, 2004
The Bottom Line: I guess you have to be a sci-fi fan to really enjoy this film, but it is superb
Review: Stanley Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey" (1968) is a story told in four acts, taking place in four different scenarios revolving around the continual reappearance of an alien and eerie black monolith throughout human history. This is hard-core...

Stanley Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey": The Meaning Revealed! (Maybe…)

Date of Review:  Nov 27, 2001
The Bottom Line: Take a look at 2001 in 2001. Or 2002, 2003, etc. You'll have a visual treat and a mental mystery on your hands.
Review: 2001. We are living in the final days of the Year of our Lord 2001, and so I suppose it is natural that as the year draws to a close one wishes to say a few words about a famous film by that name: 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Written by science...

Kudos, Mr. Kubrick

Date of Review:  Mar 30, 2000
Review: It took me quite a while to finally get around to seeing this film. I had always heard people talking about it. Critics have evidently raved about it for years. I popped this video in one dull weeknight just to see what all the hype was about. To...

Bizarre Beyond Belief

Date of Review:  Feb 21, 2005
The Bottom Line: I?m sorry Dave. I?m afraid I can?t do that
Review: I like to think of myself as a reasonably intelligent person. That's why I'm still thinking about 2001: A Space Odessy. I can't quite figure it out. I mean, I was able to follow the story and everything, but it's one of those movies that you don't...

One of the deepest movies, but also one of the most boring.

Date of Review:  Jul 23, 2003
The Bottom Line: I recognize the films importance to cinema, and why it's popular but I don't like it's themes nor it's style.
Review: Over the last few months there's been quite a few people who have accused me of getting by on controversy. They have claimed that I possibly like the attention I get from being different, and so automatically bag every popular movie that gets...

One of the greatest movies of all time

Date of Review:  Dec 1, 2001
The Bottom Line: A wonderful movie, well worth watching many times.
Review: I think that 2001: A Space Odyssey is quickly becoming my favorite movie. Some will tell you that this movie is boring, citing the fact that the characters rarely talk (Two-hour movie, roughly 15 minutes of dialogue total), the spaceships suck, it's...
