I'm not saying this is the best movie of all time, because there can't be just 1 movie that is so great, so intelligent, to carry such a title. However this is definitely one of the greatest works of art ever made. It's mindblowing scenes will follow you weeks after watching it. Just realize what a genius Kubrick must have been to make this movie and that 45 years ago!
