I am not a huge fan of Kubrick but he was pure genius with this film. 2001 took the Sci-Fi film genre from "B" movie status to mainstream. More a visual experience as there is minimal dialogue with an awesome classical music soundtrack. Best points of this movie are: seemingly accurate depiction of life in space (even with his many small details), problems that could come with Artificial Intelligence (HAL seems all too human), and the mystery that surrounds the dawn of humanity. It leaves a lot of questions unanswered and forces you to come to your own conclusions in many parts of the movie. A pioneer for the big budget Science Fiction movies.
