Old movies, slow movies, and profound movies can be great. Jaws, Blade Runner, and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, for example, are all fantastic.

2001, however, is an old, slow, maybe profound movie during which I found myself falling asleep.

Many of the shots are pretty and the music is iconic, but everything else drags - the way you feel during the 3 minute opening of black screen is indicative of how you'll feel during the rest of the movie.

I read the book first and I found it terrible, but if I hadn't read it, I don't think I would have known what was going on. I'm not sure they properly explain why the odyssey even takes place in the movie.

I'm not going to say you should avoid this movie, but don't expect it to be some great cinematic masterpiece.

I am shocked to find that this movie has no sort of following. I'm not joking. It's nostalgic, surreal, fun, energetic, and self-aware.

While it is true that the girls are mostly bad at bowling and there's not much eroticism working here, that doesn't matter. The fact that 4 nude models were paid to bowl and film satirical advertisements while being ogled is just great.

I genuinely cannot put into words how this movie makes me feel. It fills me with strange happiness, and the fact that people could dislike it amazes me. Perhaps the best word to describe this film's appeal is "campy".

To conclude, I really like Nude Bowling Party. It's something unlike anything I've ever seen before, and I am glad I stumbled across this. I'm surprised this movie isn't more celebrated, as it's something unique and special. Nude Bowling Party is absolutely worth a watch, and has earned a special place in my heart.
