It's honestly incredible that this movie was made in 1968 and had zero digital effects. Regardless of the plot it is a masterpiece of filmmaking.
If there was ever a movie ahead of it's time it's this one...
Although some of the other older films that I would say were ahead of their time as well are:
They aren't sci-fi but are movies that really stick out to me (Manchurian Candidate is a tiny bit sci fi)
The book is pretty cool too. It was written by Arthur C. Clark.
It's definately a classic. The sequel is good too.
Wait...there is a sequel?!
Yes! 2010: the year we make contact (or something). It's pretty good, different director.
