I remember talking to one of my history professors in 1968 and being surprised that he didn't like it. I thought it the cat's pajamas at the time.

His critique--He believed in evolution and thought 2001 simply brought anti-evolution in the back door under the sci-fi gloss of an alien intervention.

With the passage of the years, I now think he had a darn good point, but I haven't seen the movie in years. It is on my watch again soon list.
