2001: A Space Odyssey/2001太空漫游

The movie, full of philosophical consideration, was a sci-fi masterpiece by Arthur Clarke the great sci-fi writer and Kubrick the great movie-maker jointly. However, unfortunately, some parts with philosophical connotations seemed a little boring and tedious, and part of its space travel design was proved not feasible technically, and these two shortcomings made it a little hard for the audience nowadays to watch it. In fact, even without the two shortcomings, the audience need to understand the related works by Clarke before understanding the movie completely.

Let's talk about the movie itself. The part that the bone in the ancient ape became the spacecraft was really a shock and thought-provoking. The movie's music was also so impressive, even today it was still so often quoted by many shows.

本片是科幻大师Arthur Clarke和电影艺术大师Kubrick联手奉献的一部极富哲学思考的科幻巨作。但不幸的是,个别富于哲学含义的镜头显得过于沉闷和冗长,而它当时设想的部分太空飞行的细节在今天看来都存在一些技术上的问题。这两个缺点都让今天的观众有点不好接受。事实上,就算没有这两个缺点,要完整地理解本片,也需要了解Clarke的所有相关著作。

就电影本身而言,猿人手里的骨头变成宇宙飞船的镜头真是令人深思,相当震撼。本片的音乐也相当震撼,至今仍屡屡被多种节目引用。
