2001 has next to no dialogue; it has only the loosest narrative arc, no hero and not really a villain either unless you count a malfunctioning computer.
It's a film with no universally agreed ending and asks many more questions than it answers, yet is widely acknowledged as one of the greatest achievements in science-fiction film making.

And it predicted Siri and Alexa. What else do you want?
—Michael Moran, 2001 set the standard for the next 50 years of hard (and some soft) sci-fi
