I thought he was good in it too, but doesn't it seem like almost exactly the same character? The marked similarity is what's making me question his acting skills.

Popping the popcorn for tonight's flick. Introducing my new wife to Strangers on a Train.
Clearly I haven't thought this through properly.

Can't recall all of them. We ended up looking summaries and interpretations afterwards but she couldn't stop with "this is the ****tiest movie I've ever seen" along with claims of pretention. I didn't deny the latter.
Her favorite movie is Interstellar too so she kept pointing our simularities. Oh, and when he was pointing at the Obelisk in bed, she was like "he beat not turn into a baby or anything." She died in the next scene. I really do miss her.

Captain America: Civil War. It lacked in story, but it was awesome nonetheless. Some of the best fight scenes I've ever seen. And of course, great cast. 90/100.

Always liked Ebert's take on 2001 written at the time of the movie's release back in 1968:

I actually agree with a lot of that. I agree that character development should have been greatly imporved on concerning the human characters. I understand part of the plot is to develop HAL, but that doesn't mean the humans should still be one-dimensional like robots.
Having said that, that's literally my only complaint about the film. 2001 was ahead of its time.
