wtf: 2001-A Space Odyssey. I'm supposed to like this film, but what the fuck? The last 30 minutes of the film makes no fucking sense. It's like a piece of art in a museum that just sits there, and requires a scroll-like plaque to ensure you that, no really, the artist wasn't just vomiting mental impressions on a page, on plastic, on porcelain, that there IS meaning there, and it IS worth it to get at that meaning.
I'm not convinced. I think I just wasted two hours of my time. The bit with HAL was pretty cool, but it's hardly a ground-breaking analysis of the conflict between artificial intelligence and natural intelligence.
The cinematography was good, as always with Kubrick. That's a plus. But jesus. I want two hours of my life back.
