Three Defining Moments in the Evolution of Man

PDXSean - See all PDXSean's reviews Pros: Beautiful, Majestic
Cons: Slow
It's really hard to explain 2001, a sci-fi masterpiece. Broken into three parts, we travel from the dawn of man, to the not-to-distant future as we reach our next major evolutionary advance. This is a movie that is often refered to in popular culture, in several episodes of "The Simpsons", for example, and the ubiquitous theme from the Dawn of Man. This is a slow movie, even for Kubrick, be prepared for 15 minutes of no dialogue or action, but constantly beautiful shots and masterful imagery. ...

Pros: Dazzling visuals, thought-provoking ambiguity, magnificent music and sound
Cons: Some fx shots are slightly dated.
Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece. The greatest science fiction film ever made, tracing and speculating on man's evolution and his place in the universe. Very subtle and ambiguous confrontation between man and an ultra-advanced extraterrestrial life form. Fascinating theological implications on a purely scientific level. Though some fx shots are slightly dated, the film remains as visually dazzling as it was in 1968. Magnificent score from classical and avant garde musical sources. My favorite film. ...
