Science-Fiction
One of my favourite genres growing up was (and still is) science-fiction. After punk and cyberpunk coming into the mix sci-fi still holds a purity of a world that is well developed into the future, showing how a certain modern day theme will still cause problems in the future despite our efforts to be more equal, turning humanity into one big existential creature. The coolest thing bout it is how older the films get, the less you think bout the philosophy (except for the greats) and just see a beautiful piece of fiction.

Kubrick is a master at lifting the genre from ordinary laughs to a philosophical and political level of debate whilst bringing out the problems of technology outsmarting humans. Kubrick is a master of the camera and frames this film like a painting, not a photograph, A PAINTING!
