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, a metaphor for life, reality. It, and, with varying degrees of competence, these two movies, show us how we project our monkey needs onto it. To that extent calling the book or either movie better is like different people calling a mirror better or worse or whatever.
