2001: A Space Odyssey.
First off, let me start with the bad things about it. The movie starts of a little odd and already in the first minutes of the movie we gets to see the "silent-artistic" way of moviemaking, which Kubrick uses several times throughout the movie.
Imo, the first hour could've been shorten down as most of it was unnecessary and boring even though some of it was quite facinating. But when almost an hour in it really starts to catch my attention and turn out to be exciting actually. It gets weird again towards the end, and I think that all this weirdness and unnecessary long and boring shots isn't artistic at all. People calling them that is because they don't understand it and never have seen anything like it. Therefore they choose to call it artistic.
The acting was only average, and the best acting came from a voice, HAL-9000 which made the movie tbh.
Now, the positive sides of this movie was first of all the STUNNING special effects. This movie is from 1968 and it looks amazing. Beautifully executed.
Even though some of the shots were too long and boring, some were more facinating than others.
6/10

On the TV show subject been watching all The Simpsons from start to finish over the last couple of weeks, on season 8 at the moment. I probably haven't seen season 12 onwards since I stopped watching them religiously on TV when I was younger. I don't think they will ever end The Simpsons... Will probably go on forever lol.

But I've been watching Season 2 and I'm not getting the same feeling where I have to watch the next episode straight away
