Om den här filmen

Stanley Kubricks bländande Oscar®vinnande verk är ett fängslande drama om kampen mellan människa och maskin tillika en oerhört vacker sammansmältning av musik och bild. Kubrick (som skrev manuset tillsammans med Arthur C. Clarke) tar oss först till vårt förhistoriska ap-ursprung för att sedan hoppa fram i tiden och vi landar ett millennium senare (med ett av historiens mest anmärkningsvärda tidsklipp) i en koloniserad rymd. Det hela avslutas med att astronaut Bowman (Keir Dullea) sveps in i aldrig tidigare besökta delar av rymden, kanske till och med in i evigheten. "Open the pod bay doors, HAL." och låt oss påbörja en resa vi aldrig tidigare upplevt.

Betyg och recensioner

True 4k this film was shot on a format that at the time wasn't used so much not on 35mm but 70mm film so it caught a perfect amount of detail. Hence why it's a such a feast for the eye's

For its time this movie has amazing special effects and how they did them was very intuitive and unique. I watched this is media class in school when I was 12 and I was so impressed.

One of the best films ever made. Every shot is perfect. Kubrick set out to make 'a serious SCI-Fi film' and it was clearly a massive inspiration on film makers such as Lucas/Spielberg/Tarkovsky/Nolan.. Some may argue that it is too slow and there is no plot. This isn't film that tells you what to think but to get you thinking and exploring for yourself Life's big questions: What is our purpose? How and why is God guiding us? How do we stop ourselves becoming more like the machines we build and keep our humanity? What are the impacts of AI? The acting style is deliberately flat and robotic to show how dehumanised we have become and that the computer: HAL sounds more human and real. This is even more relevant today than it was in 1968.
