A SPACE ODYSSEY (2001)

(God creation)




This film is a bit slow moving and overtly long. The film is quite complicated to understand because it happened in beyond our expectation. Most of the story (film) set in space. We didn't really like it, right after we saw it, but we learn something interesting as we never have a chance to go in space to watch directly of anything up there. Therefore, this fantastic movie, brought us to see something amazing that we believe it is god creation.


And now,we know that any god creation can't be questionable. As the god wanted something to be, it will be. Yet The almighty of god can't be argued. We as humanbeing are a part of his amazing creation. It is the same case in this story, when the power of "monolith"(the mysterious thing buried on the moon), is the amazing thing by god creation.At the beginning of this story, it revealed about a group of apes which given the knowledge to use a bone as both tool and a weapon. They believe, it happened due to the power of monolith. In our opinion, the "monolith" is only the cause to the apes to be developed and jumping in one step. We believe that, the god cannot change a human fate, without he or she attempted to.



"Monolith" also has a power to send radio signal to Jupiter. That was the mission should be investigated by the astronauts in this story directed by Kubrick. At the end of the story shows that the power of monolith would switch present time to future version. Is that logical? It is something out of our horizon. If it would happen, it is so called "god creation".Anything will happen by god wish.
Moreover, this film deals with thematic elements of human evolution, technology,artificial intelligence and extraterrestrial life, and is notable for its scientific realism.It is possible to say, the "intelligence" is a credit and a gift by god. If anyone is able to step further in creating technology and devices,that creativity and knowledge will be considered as god gifted.


THE SENTINEL VS. A SPACE ODYSSEY(2001)


The story "the sentinel" is being expanded into the film "A space Odyssey (2001)".When we took a look and read this story for the first time, we really gave up with the story. It was so hard to imagine what was hapening and what the settings look like. However, when our lecturer gave us a chance to watch the film, the setting in space had been shown to us more clearly.
There is no much differences about the short story and the film.This story which is written by Arthur C. Clarke reveals about the discovery of an artifact on Earth's moon left behind million years ago by ancient aliens.The narrator believe the mysterious aliens who left this structure on the moon may have used mechanisms belonging "to a technology that lies beyond our horizons".Probably, that structure is sent by god for human usage.
However, it is quite unbelievable and it something so called "a myth" to the existence of "aliens".We don't so much believe on the "aliens". However, in religion aspects, the god creation which is called "devil" is always exist.However, in the film there is no description about the "aliens".
*** THE END ***
