This is one of the best 4K transfers ever produced. Even though the film is 50 years old it looks like it was recently made. The sound and picture are perfect. It has lots of interesting bonus materials on a second Blu-ray disc as well which includes….
2001: The Making of a Myth (480i; 43:08) is an interesting retrospective with lots of people discussing the impact of the film.
Standing on the Shoulders of Kubrick: The Legacy of 2001 (480i; 21:25) features people such as Steven Spielberg and George Lucas discussing what the film has meant to them and the art of cinema.
Vision of a Future Passed: The Prophecy of 2001 (480i; 21:31) looks at some of the things that seemed futuristic in 1968.
2001: A Space Odyssey: A Look Behind the Future (480p; 23:11) is a longer form archival piece that includes production data and interviews.
What Is Out There? (480i; 20:42)
2001: FX and Conceptual Artwork (480i; 9:33) features some interesting comments from Douglas Trumbull.
Look: Stanley Kubrick! (480i; 3:15) is a brief piece focusing on Kubrick's work as a magazine photographer.
11/27/1966 Interview with Stanley Kubrick (1:16:31) is an audio interview conducted by Jeremy Bernstein that plays to a still image (1080p) of the Starchild gazing on his new toy (Earth).
Theatrical Trailer (480p; 1:51)
Also included is a small booklet with production photos and four 5x7 cards. “2001 A Space Odyssey” is a film that belongs in every collection. It is groundbreaking in every possible way and is the the film that has influenced so many countless other films.

Fantastic presentation of this science fiction classic. 2001: A Space Odyssey is Stanley Kubrick taking the next step in his evolution as a filmmaker and advancing special effects light years in the process.

I already had this movie digitally but I always believe that physical media is always better and the audio is being preserved without loss. I bought this with $5 voucher so it’s an easy decision.

One of the greatest science fiction films. A bit slow at times, but the visuals still hold up. And the music is phenomenal!

This movie is an absolute classic. Love Kubrick. Would’ve been better with a digital code, but still, looks great.

Stanley Kubrick masterpiece creation of the Arthur C Clarke book! Kubrick broke new ground in creating a Sci-Fi that raised the bar for the Genre. It has stood the test of time, which was 50 years ago. The picture quality in 4K Ultra is amazing. The sets and scenes were masterfully shot. Re-watch this movie, and enjoy it even more at home!
