Watching this movie was like having someone slowly peel off all my finger nails simultaneously... but I didn't resist because somehow I thought it would be worth it in the end... and then they poored salt in the wounds and mashed the finger nails back down... Simply torturous...

I tried to watch this movie once, all i got was a black screen with a humming sound, i only know what happened because i read the plot on Wikipedia, Stanley Kubrick is the master behind the shinning movie but i think ridley scott should've made this movie,

Visually impressive. Flat acting. No major tension involving HAL. Pointlessly and oainfully drawn out scenes. A horribly awful movie. Kubrik is vastly overrated with this one. Pass it by!
