This is the quintessential sci-fi film and a must see for anyone who likes thoughtful movies over mindless marvel garbage, although I'm sure there is a crossover. Beautiful and thought provoking, this is a movie that requires patience, re-watching, open mindedness and a brain to appreciate. The pace won't be everyone's cup of tea, but for sheer scale alone this movie is a must. Kubrick will always be and should always be lauded for the audacity with which he made this film, considering it was made before we landed on the moon. The film still looks breathtaking, hasn't dated at all (apart from some dodgy haircuts) and is spectacular attempt at real filmmaking, something we don't see much of anymore.
