Gentlemen, and ladies, please! Enough with the name calling. This film was art, pure art. And art has always polarized people. There are people who would sell their soul to own a Van Gogh, and others would rather patch a fence with it. Personally, I think the film was astonishing, superb, thought provoking and heart-breaking. It spoke deeply to me, but I have to respect that others will hate it. Just as I love Beethoven and the Beatles, others thing they are just knows. So be it. They have the things that speak to them.
AI resonated within my soul for days after seeing it. I still catch myself remembering scenes from the movie. I am haunted by it.
As Kubrick's producer said "This movie is like 2001. You either love it, or you hate it."
2001 is remembered as one of the great works of our time, and I believe that AI will take its place their as well.
