grayjay 's review for:
2001: A Space Odyssey
by Arthur C. Clarke
The first part, with the early hominids felt a little silly, it made more sense when I found it it was adapted from a separate story.
The main narrative adventures of the two astronauts on their way to Saturn felt a little tedious, but balanced with enough tension and sense of wonder to keep it interesting.
The end, when things are finally explained is pretty great and wonderous. You can see the influence it had on later works—especially Contact by Carl Sagan.
