I watched it recently for the first time, and I really don’t get why it’s so loved. IMDB rates it as the second-best movie of all time, but it seems far worse than that to me. I like most old movies and see their hype, but The Godfather didn’t do it for me. What am I missing?

    2001 absolutely is a boring film though. Impressive on a technical level, but very slow burning, and there is so much that they don’t bother to explain to the audience that the books actually cover, for example Hal’s reasons for going off the rails.
