  • 2001 Space Odyssey.

    It’s just so bad. Objectively bad. And I rarely use that term, because movies and art are so subjective.

    It feels like it was trying to be a showcase of 1960’s film technology, and I’ve got nothing about that. It’s shot well, and it’s kinda cool seeing how they had to do things back then.

    But the plot feels like it was written mostly during a bad acid trip that just wouldn’t end. I’m fully convinced that its one of those things that people pretend to like so they can pretentiously chortle with their film buddies about “how the common man just doesn’t have the attention span needed to appreciate it.”

    It’s an hour too long and the plot is so basic yet so overly convoluted.
