...there's two movies you MUST watch. Both by director Andrei Tarkovsky, Russia's answer to Stanley Kubrick. The aforementioned flicks are Solaris (not to be confused with the remake starring ol'Clooney...), sometimes called "Solyaris", and Stalker. For those who admire movies where poetic imagery and Phillip K. Dick'ensian subtleties prevail, these are absolutely unmissable, and, more than "just" movies, they are, like 2001, an experience. If, however, you're part of those who only refer to 2001 as "boring", stay as far away from them as possible!!

I've only seen the remake and I thought it wasn't very good, I will have to check out the original. I love 2001, much more now than when I was younger. I'd also suggest Sunshine, a very overlooked movie.

I'd also suggest Sunshine, a very overlooked movie. No doubt, Boyle's Sunshine is a gem, and a grossly overlooked one. I too love 2001 even more now, and if that's your cup of tea, you won't go wrong with Solyaris - Russia's "2001"... - and Stalker. If you do get to watch them, let us know what you thought.
