Simply Perfect

Good movie but grossly overrated

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

This is one of the worst movies ever! It's soooooooo slow. I've been reading what everyone says and I don't understand it. From 20mins of monkeys to the guy walking the space station and dave roaming around outside it's just soooo boring!

2001: a space odyssey is a masterpiece with acting and visual effects and cinematography and film music, the hiding meaning of the film can be interpreted to many things and is actually pretty accurate to how are situation is, overall space odyssey is a masterpiece you have to watch it.

I remember when I was a kid, I was impressed with the dawn of man story line. I thought the cinematography and the score was also impressive. But then for some reason I remember falling asleep within seconds from the scene in witch the ape tosses the bone toward the sky, then cuts to outer space. I thought Id give it another shot. Now that I could see it with adult eyes. Practically the same thing happened. The movie felt like a presentation rather than a movie. With fancy cinematography and score, But very little dialog and plot delopment. And a W. T. F ending. A total waste of time.

This movie came back a long time ago and till date no one ever attempted to make a film like this becus they knew the audience would call it a copied crap! As this is a masterpiece, many other directors can only take this movie as an inspiration but not try to replicate this . If so then the situation was going to be like, when the oldboy 2013 came out!
