Arguably the greatest movie of all time. A time-tested masterpiece in all aspects if your attention span is better than a squirrel’s.

Possibly the greatest film ever made. In terms of spectacle, unmatched by anything.

Take in mind that most of the negative feedback this movie receives is from people not understanding the symbolism. 11/10 incredible

Masterpiece of science fiction. Just as good today as it was when it came out

A masterfully made Sci Fi film that takes its time and builds up tension. Because of this, the dramatic and fantastical moments hit harder.

Great movie, if not slightly overrated. The visuals are amazing, the story is complex to a fault. Definitely leaves you with more questions.

The special effects for this 1968 movie still hold up. It's kind of crazy. Great movie. One of the best sci-fi movies ever. Must watch.

One of the best, if not THE best, sci-fi films of all time. A certified classic, and a must-watch for anyone who enjoys watching movies.

A masterpiece piece that can come off as boring if you're not in the right mindset. Stanley Kubrick did it again!
