Dr. Heywood Floyd receives a most unusual message, and demands identification from the sender, much to his terror.
2010 (also known as 2010: The Year We Make Contact) is a 1984 American science fiction film written and directed by Peter Hyams. It is a sequel to Stanley Kubrick's 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey, and is based on Arthur C. Clarke's novel 2010: Odyssey Two.
Roy Scheider, Helen Mirren, Bob Balaban and John Lithgow star, along with Keir Dullea and Douglas Rain of the cast of the previous film. Personally, I find this film an underrated little gem. While not as epic and sweeping as the original, it does finally answer all of the important questions the original movie left us with.
