2001 : L'Odyssée de l'espace (1968)

Review by beautiful_loser

2001 : L'Odyssée de l'espace

10/10

Mankind versus computer in the search of the mysteries of infinite

A black monolyth of perfect asymetry is found by apes in the prehistoric era. In the modern times , a monolyth of the same kind is found on the moon by humans. A signal who emanates from this object leads scientists and astronauts on a mission to Jupiter.

2001 is an odyssey through existence and even byond existence. We see in this film the obsession of Kubrick for the perfection , the perfection in the film in its whole , but perfection in the screenplay , a perfection in the movements of camera and perfect synchronisation in the editing, wonderful montages of classical music fusing with planets.

In '68 Kubrick was acknowledge visionary unanimously for showing the voyage into space the way he did , but now we see that where he has been the most visionary is in his representation about the future mythof the supercomputer. Thanks to Arthur C. Clarke too of course.

A film in which the director is in perfect control of all the rudiments inevitable to the good elaboration of a film. Trying to show which place takes the computer facing man , pushing the viewer to a continuous thinking.
