2001 a space odyssey is a weird movie. It gives me the creeps, it made humans look more distance then I've ever seen them. They look so distance and unpredictable in that movie.

I don't know if the movie has some kind of point it's trying to get us to understand, I just don't understand them... I don't understand what the monolith are for, what the Star child in the end is, basically, can someone explain to me what the movie was trying to say?
