År 2001: rumrejsen

Om denne film

Stanley Kubricks imponerende, Oscar®-vindende mesterværk, der på ypperlig vis skildrer kampen mellem mennesket og maskinerne, og som dristigt og medrivende lader musik og bevægelse gå op i en højere enhed. Kubrick (som skrev filmmanuskriptet sammen med Arthur C. Clarke) tager os først med til en præhistorisk fortid, hvor jorden er befolket af aber, for derefter at springe flere årtusinder frem i tiden (ved hjælp af et af filmhistoriens mest utrolige klip) til rumtiden for til sidst at sende astronauten Bowman (Keir Dullea) ud i rummets uendelige vidder - måske helt udi udødeligheden. "Open the pod bay doors, HAL" - og lad en utrolig rejse tage sin begyndelse.

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!
