I know it set some sifi benchmarks and introduced ideas , concepts when it was released . But is it worth watching now as we have more films better or not with same concepts ? Does it still hold up ? Does it have any plot holes ? Is the story good ? How is the pacing ? What about the characters are they fleshed out ? All in all a spoiler free review or the answer to these questions will be appreciated .

EDIT : How does the sequels hold up and can 2001 stand alone ?

2001 2010 2061 and 3001

2001 and 2010 were made into movies (2001 was written along side of the movie being filmed)

2061 and 3001 are books.

If you like Clarke they are enjoyable
