Afternoon Movie!

Today I watched 2001: A Space Odyssey. What a weird movie! I like sci-fi okay but this was a little over the top for me.The visual effects was really great, but for the most part I didn't enjoy the movie.


According in imbd: "2001" is a story of evolution. Sometime in the distant past, someone or something nudged evolution by placing a monolith on Earth (presumably elsewhere throughout the universe as well). Evolution then enabled humankind to reach the moon's surface, where yet another monolith is found, one that signals the monolith placers that humankind has evolved that far. Now a race begins between computers (HAL) and human (Bowman) to reach the monolith placers. The winner will achieve the next step in evolution, whatever that may be.
