It has a plot which doesn't go anywhere: In the opening scene monkeys learn the use of the bone as a weapon, it then suddenly cuts to a man on a spaceship who we follow for about an hour and then disappears totally from... read more

"4.4. 2025 In his film 2001: A Space Odyssey, Stanley Kubrick broadly depicts the steps of evolution, which essentially involve a mythical black monolith. The monolith appears among the ape-men and one of the creatures learns to use a bone as a weapon. No explanation is offered as to where the monolith came from, nor is one needed.

Pros and Cons of Films: Vol. 2 (130 movies items)

"Pros: The enigma of the film. โ€œItโ€™s full of stars.โ€ HAL 9000 Keir Dullea and Gary Lockwood, as Dave Bowman and Frank Poole The classical music soundtrack Itโ€™s a beautifully epic movie. Directed by Stanley Kubrick Cons: It requires at least dozens of multiple views, to totally appreciate it. For some, 2001 is a pretentious and ponderous movie."
