Synopsis:
The film explores the intelligence of man. From the emergence of primitive man all the way to man turning into pure thought (The star child for you dumb fucks).

Review:
Well lets face it, this film is fucked up. The film is two hours long and it only has 40 minutes of speech. Now dats fucked up! I've also heard so many different view points on the film, some saying it's a masterpiece others call it a boring opera. For me….ahhh, it was cool, but it wouldn't be anything without HAL. HAL makes the film, although one could get tired of him saying, "stop Dave stop". From about 5 minutes straight. The film is pretty realistic scientifically speaking, until the end where it gets surreal and everything is all fucked up.

Now, I'm not saying this because I don't understand the film. Fuck dat shit, nigger. I dig the film, but I don't need to see a close up of Kier Dullea's eye in 27 different colours for ten minutes straight. But I still dig it.

On another note, Pink Floyd's "Echoes" matches nearly exactly to the "Jupiter and Beyond The Infinite" sequence. Both are 23 minutes and 47 seconds long. Try it out if you get bored with the classical music score.

Special Features :
Well this disc came out before the Kubrick collection came out. And thank the dear Lord for that. The special features are great. The trailers are just that, but the real jem is the interview with Arthur C. Clarke. The booklet was informative but lets face it an audio commentary would have been da shit!

Video:
Get the fuck out of here! I love widescreen, the wider the better (unlike women). Dats why I'm so glad dis mofo is 2.35:1. And the picture is crystal clear. I don't give a flying fuck when it came out, dis is one sharp mother fucker.

Audio:
The boys at MGM really put a package together here. The new 5.1 soundtrack is outstanding. Keeping this film in mono would have been a sin. Thank God the boys put their heads together and thought to put it on the disc. Great job boys.

"Daisy, Daisy, Give me your answer do….I'm half….craaaaazy all for the love of you. It won't be a stylish marriage…..I can't afford a carriage…but you'll look sweet upon the seat….of a bicycle made for two…….." HAL 9000 singing
