Clooney's in space. . .Clooney's in space. Director Steven Soderbergh claimed that this was last a remake of the Tarkovsky film and more an adaption of the source novel by Stanislaw Lem. It's hard not to compare it with one of the great…

The dismal reviews of this film at the LPL, to my mind, have entirely missed the boat. This is very nearly a great film, marred only by an unnecessary coda that ties things up too neatly at the end. This is science fiction at its best,…

Very boring!

Suffers from lackluster plot, poor pacing, uninteresting camera-work.

Mind bending and mesmerizing, this sci-fi flick avoids action pacing in favor of slow-boil suspense. It leaves you to try and figure out what's real and what's imagined, but most importantly shows the sacrifices one man is willing to make…

It is incredible how much more technically advanced space films have gotten since this came out almost 15 years ago. This film was too slow paced and dry for me, but the score by Cliff Martinez was beautiful, I ordered it after watching…

I used to have a lot of respect for Stephen Soderberg but that respect evaporated when I watched this mess. A female film reviewer quipped that the only thing she found worth watching was George Clooney's naked butt! I considered Andrei…

This is a 2002 American SF drama written and directed by Steven Soderbergh, based on the 1961 science fiction novel of the same name by Polish writer Stanisław Lem. It is a meditative psychodrama set almost entirely on a space station…

Love all kinds of sci-fi movies but this.. this was terrible. I've never felt like I've ever wasted time on a movie.. except with this one I did. I couldn't wait for it to be over.

The original russian version is more highly regarded than this hollywood remake, and rightly so. Americans do stuff, things, aren't exactly famous for human relationships, on or off screen. Lem's Solaris is a 3D Rorschach ink blot test,…

Not one of the worse sci-fi movies I've seen. Nothing wrong with the acting. Essentially a re-write problem. It still deals with the essential themes that make the best of the genre: what makes us human? what is space exploration? why do…

Hold on now.... What the hell happened here? Soderbergh? James Cameron producing? They talk smartly in the commentary. They “Hollywooded” this thing. Took out absolutely every bit of idea and left Clooney and 2 of the worst ‘actors’…

In my list of the WORST movies i have seen in my life - this will make the list. Along with Gigli.

It was decent. Clooney was good; Viola Davis, excellent, as the frazzled Dr. Gordon. Natascha McElhone is an attractive woman, but... she's kinda creepy looking, too. She *looks* like an alien. She has big, bulbous eyeballs. And an…

If you cannot think, do not watch this movie. This is a very good movie BASED on the book Solaris. Nor an adaptation neither a film about the book. If you read the book, you will notice they are not the same. Very good actors. Do not miss…

It was O.K for a home TV movie. I was entertained and interesting. But it was NOT worth the long library wait or the price to rent from a Red Box. "I fast forwarded a lot but not all the way.”

"Solaris is a 1961 Polish science fiction novel by Stanisław Lem. The book is about the ultimate inadequacy of communication between human and non-human species. In probing and examining the oceanic surface of the planet Solaris from a…

Good movie, well paced. No an action film, more pyschological.

I remember seeing this in the theatre and it being the ONLY movie ever that I've walked out of. Big fan of George Clooney's but this movie is atrocious

A fine movie in its own right but I felt it took too many liberties from the book in the interest of trying to copy the style and tone of the film 2001: Space Odyssey.
