I'm sure that everybody at some point in their life has been walking out of a cinema or has just stopped the video on their VCR and said to themselves "What was that all about?"
There are a few films that have forced me to watch them for a second time to understand what is going on. Mission Impossible (the first one) i watched twice because i wasn't really sure what was going on. I only really understood Blade Runner after watching the director's cut version and a lot of my friends still don't understand what is going on. I'm sure there are a lot of films that have really pushed our brains to the limits but the one film that still sticks in my head is "2001 a space Odyssey" I've seen this film a few times and i'm still not sure what is going on. I really should read the book but seeing as though i don't understand the film i'm doubtful if reading the book will make things any clearer. Can anybody actually understand what is going on in this film?

2001 is a classic and I dont blame you for not getting it. Its basically about advances in technology. You see the cave men types advancing. Then the film shoots into the present. We see the same effect happening.
The monolisk - an alien intervention. Scary and bloody worrying. But typically Kubrick. Just thnink of it as a film telling us to be wary of advance until we know we have control. Full control.
It's going to make you think. Thats the idea.
