Synopsis:

2001: A Space Odyssey is a countdown to tomorrow, a road map to human destiny, a quest for the infinite. It is a dazzling, Academy Award® - winning† visual achievement, a compelling drama of man vs. machine, a stunning meld of music and motion. It may be the masterwork of director Stanley Kubrick (who cowrote the screenplay with Arthur C. Clarke)…and it will likely excite, inspire and enthrall for generations. To begin his voyage into the future, Kubrick visits our prehistoric ape-ancestry past, then leaps milllenia (via the most mind-blowing jump cut ever conceived) into colonized space, and ultimately whisks astronaut Bowman (Keir Dullea) into uncharted realms of space, perhaps even into immortality. “Open the pod bay doors, HAL.” Let the awe and mystery of a journey unlike any other begin.

<2001太空漫遊>是跨進未來的倒數，也是通往人類宿命的路線圖，並引領觀眾探索宇宙無限。這部耀目生輝、贏得金像獎映象成就榮譽的劇情片，刻劃人類與機器比併的筆觸，將音樂與動作美妙結合，引人入勝。此片誠許是鬼才導演史丹利寇比力克的驕人傑作(他與亞瑟克拉克聯合編劇)…並勢將令好幾個世代的觀眾興奮、戀慕與併發奇想。 在開始未來旅程之前，寇比力克先引領我們重溫人類史前遠祖猩猩的世代，然後一躍百萬春秋(利用史無前例的其中一種最匪夷所思的跳剪手法)，跨進太空殖民紀元，最終並將太空人布曼(基雅杜利亞飾)飛閃入太空蠻荒領域，或許甚至將他送到永生之門。 隨著一句：「打開太空艙門吧，希爾。」就讓這個令人肅然起敬、空前絕後的旅程開始吧。
