A Space Odyssey Review

Before I begin i would like to say that this review will not be as detailed as the other ones because i have to watch  a movie twice before writing a thorough review, anyway enjoy.

A Space Odyssey (1968) a movie produced and directed by Stanley Kubrick is one of the weirdest movies anyone will encounter. A short summary of it is that a weird artifact is located and no one knows its origin or purpose and humans send people on missions to investigate. What makes this movie special is that it doesnt even have a lot of words. i personally used to believe that the simplest form of an amazing movie is a man and his words. But i was wrong, Stanley Kubrick shows us that action does speak louder than words. He focused on expressing his thoughts through the actions of the actors and not a script that shows the viewer this is the story nothing else. He made millions of movies in one, each person will think of this movie in a different way based on his/her perception of the given action. This movie might not be easy for many people to watch because of its dense material. For all the people who love movies i recommend this movie. No one knows what Stanley Kubrick was thinking when he made the last 30 Minutes of the movie, insane, genius, or just simple. All that is decided by you.

Thank you for reading, Slayer.
