In the future, there are no lightbulbs
I wondered that when the interior of the Leonov (CCCP ship) was so freegin’ dim. Or maybe the Ruskies were trying to save power by keeping all of the lights off! That really piqued my curiosity… On the whole, 2010 is an above average, yet not superior movie. If any fans of AC Clarke’s series have read the book “The Odyssey File”, which chronicles the making of 2010 (the book is composed of e-mail correspondence between Clarke and director Peter Hyams. They were among the first users of e-mail technology – in 1984!) reveals the director’s paranoia and even humility as he hopes his film will even come close as a worthy successor to the peerless original. That peerless original, of course, is 2001.

2010 is dated, somewhat forgotten, and does fall short of the power of Kubrick’s vision (how many times have you heard THAT before?). But Stan the Man is a hard act to follow. While 2001 is timeless, 2010 reveals its easily dated personality on a couple of occasions. The Cold War theme is the most obvious. The computers, monitors, and graphics used throughout are instantly identifiable, dressed-up Commodore 64-era tech hardware. Roy Scheider’s character, Dr. Floyd, instructs his crew to “listen to your cassettes” to receive updates on their mission. Okay, so that line of dialogue wouldn’t fly past 1992, when CDs were on the verge of killing the audio cassette star (*). But 2010 is not without merit. It follows its predecessor’s footsteps to a faithful degree, filling in the aftermath of the Bowman-HAL fiasco, and the slew of interesting and dangerous ramifications it created.

Peter Hyams obviously set out to create a cerebral, based-in-reality production, unlike the other sci-fi movies of his day, which gave 2010 a distinct image. Return of the Jedi came out the year before, 1983, and the moviegoing public was probably still hot on heels of the Star Wars depiction of space movies, which I assume hurt the box-office chances of 2010.

It is a dated, yet hidden gem, crafted together with solid intentions and performances. The supporting cast of Helen Mirren, John Lithgow, and Bob Balaban play off each other very well and supply some thought-provoking and entertaining moments. The scenes with Bowman and Floyd are gripping, as is the later dialogue between Bowman and HAL. There are no explosions or corny “director tools” used, and the special effects (well, excluding the interior computer sets of the Leonov) were not revolutionary but get the job done.

2010 hasn’t enjoyed the staying power of its contemporary brethren (Blade Runner, 1982; the Star Wars trilogy, 1977-1983; Alien/Aliens, 1979, 1986) and is a circle-square comparison to 2001. But it holds its own in many respects and is worth a few repeated viewings.

It took me decades to appreciate this film, so I hope this review might save you a few years
We open on a warm, orange sunrise over the colossal radio dishes in New Mexico where our hero, the American scientist George Floyd, is high up on a dish scaffold. A jovial but mysterious Russian scientist appears below shouting a few words of mocking admiration. Floyd responds from his perch, “Who the hell are you?” The Russian continues chatting as he slowly lumbers up the steps, and the two strangers trade witty jabs at each other, carefully maneuvering around the subject of the original Jupiter Mission which ended in tragic failure 9 years earlier. The Russian pauses barely halfway up the first flight of steps and says, “This is very bad for my asthma. You think you could meet me halfway?” Floyd utters a noncommittal “Maybe” but doesn’t budge. The conversation turns political as they chat about some “very bad” events happening between America and Russia. Then abruptly the Russian says “Let’s play a game called The Truth. For two minutes, I will tell only the truth. And so will you.” Floyd counters with: “Make it a minute and a half”. The Russian offers: “A minute and three quarters.” The whole time as we’re witnessing this bizarre, comical New Mexican standoff, the camera periodically cuts to a wide shot showing exactly how far apart the two are (physically as well as politically), and how each adversary bargains his way closer to the other on the stairs of this enormous white satellite dish in the middle of the desert.

“We are scientists, you and I, Dr. Floyd. Our governments are enemies. We are not.”

This is the greatest “cold war” opening of any film I’ve ever seen. And make no mistake, “2010” is a film about the Cold War even though it may have spaceships and extraterrestrials and possibly a psycho killer robot or two. In 1984 master director Peter Hyams (“Capricorn One”, “Outland”) teamed up with the iconic scifi author Arthur C. Clarke (“Childhood’s End”, “Fountains of Paradise” and the original “2001: A Space Odyssey”) to bring to the screen a companion film to the amazing “2001”. If you’re a fan of Hyams’ style, then don’t even bother reading the rest of my review; just go watch the movie. Much like “Capricorn One” this movie is a really cool blend of scifi and political thriller. But you shouldn’t expect “Star Wars” nor should you expect “The Manchurian Candidate” because it’s not that sort of scifi or political thriller. Like all Hyams films it focuses on individuals, and on that level it succeeds brilliantly. More about that in a sec, first here’s the basic plot.

The derelict ship The USS Discovery has been spinning wildly around Jupiter’s moon Io for 9 years since its mission was abruptly terminated in the 1st movie. There’s also this business about a creepy 6-mile high monolith in the general vicinity. Both America & Russia want to get there first and unlock the secrets of what happened, but guess what, the only way anyone can reach it is if the 2 antagonistic countries form a joint mission. And they gotta do it fast because The Discovery’s orbit is decaying and it’ll burn up with all its secrets.

Back to the theme of individuals which Hyams is great at presenting. “2010” is a very human film. In that respect it presents a great contrast against the original “2001” which Kubrick presented as a very sterile, inhuman experience. In the 1st film nobody showed any emotion, none of the characters really had a soul except, ironically, the ship’s computer. Here we get a wonderful array of very human, very warm and interesting characters. The script is full of comedic banter, full of genuine connections between people–whether friendly or adversarial or both, like in that powerful 1st scene. And that’s the real magic of this story.

Sure, you can watch it for the story alone because that’s really intelligent as well as suspensefully presented (tell me your heart doesn’t go through the roof during the Europa probe scene. Or the aero-braking scene. Or HAL’s “I think we should abort the countdown” scene. Double-check the batteries in your pacemakers, folks!). But for my money, I love this film for way it fleshes out each quirky character in this tight, claustrophobic mission to reach the derelict ship. Everyone will pick their own favorite, but my money goes to Bob Balaban who plays Dr Chandra, the socially awkward genius who built–and is responsible for resurrecting–the psycho robot HAL9000. But there’s also John Lithgow playing the “everyman” engineer Curnow who can’t take 2 steps in space without puking but who, along with his Russian counterpart Max, gives us some great human moments and comedic spice. Again, this movie is all about humanity against the coldness of space.

First time I saw this movie I thought it was good but “boring” (hey I was like 9 years old). I watched it a few years later and liked it a lot. Then I bought the book and read it. Then watched the movie again and loved it. Now, a decade or 2 after my initial introduction to this film, a decade or 2 since I’ve been exploring cinema and not just Hollywood stuff but obscure gems from all over the world and every decade, I keep coming back to “2010” as one of the greatest scifi flicks out there. Here’s hoping your odyssey doesn’t take as long. There’s so much more to this film than meets the eye. Like that opening scene, you can practically write an entire essay on that alone. Egads I think I just did.
