2001: A Space Odyssey

Perhaps a bit late in reviewing this movie, (by 41 years to be exact) but this movie still stands up to today’s sci-fi movies.  Directed by Stanley Kubrick (also director of A Clockwork Orange), this movie pushed the boundries of what people thought of sci-fi movies.  In fact, I like this movie more than many sci-fi movies coming out today that rely on special effects rather than storytelling.  One featured to be noted as far as special effects go, Odyssey came out 9 years before the original Star Wars, and looks almost as good.  Of course, many people know the story, if you lived back then of course.  I actually watched this when I was very young, and watched it again just yesterday.  One of my reasons for reviewing is this; if you are of the younger generation and haven’t seen this movie, watch it!  Especially if you happen to be a big fan of sci-fi.  Well, that’s about it for this review, gonna go play some Halo Wars.  Until next time.
