You are certainly not alone.
I have done extensive research into the 2001 phenomena over the last 20-25 odd years. My compiled research tells me that of the total no. of people who have watched 2001 - actually, make that "tried to watch" 2001 - somewhere between 25% to 50% fell asleep.
If you go into 2001 expecting to be entertained, you will probably end up a sleeper.
I agree with Analog Scott - it is a thinking movie. It leaves you with lots of questions and few answers. No ideology or philosphy is foisted onto you - but there is a lot to ponder afterwards if you want to.As an engineer, I loved it instantly for its totally realistic vision of space travel, which IMO is unsurpassed. I can't suspend my sense long enough to relax and enjoy Star Wars or any other modern sci-fi film - they are all 5th Element to me - just fun stories with gobs of mindnumbing CGI effects done because without the effects they'd have no movie at all.
The fact that almost nothing happens for much of the film is fine with me, the guys who one day travel to Mars or Jupiter will do nothing for most of the time as well.Cheers,
