My main problem about CM's review of 2001 is that it's the only Kubrick film he has reviewed. So, he completely understood The Shining? 2001, as he "objectively" puts it, is about nothing, if you don't interpret it. Well, guess what, you HAVE to interpret The Shining, because the "supernatural" elements are never explained as supernatural, real, hallucinations, dream sequences, metaphors, or symbols, so you MUST interpret what it all means to understand it. P.S., you didn't like Dr. Strangelove?

Yeah, creating an "us" vs them thing is so unfair,
