This movie gets better with every viewing for me, and this was no exception. I also come up with a different take every time. I read the film as a comment on the problems of the creation process this time. I doubt Kubrick and Clarke looked at it like that, but they made the film in such a way that you could read that into it. It does make you think, which is one of the things great art does. I have read some comments that this isn't a good transfer. That is definitely not the case. It looked great on my TV and every professional review I've read also stated it was a great transfer. Every one. There were complaints about previous DVD releases, so perhaps they meant those. This one is fantastic, especially for such an old movie.
