Review of Solaris

Solaris (2002)
Sleepy Time
12 April 2004
I've tried to watch this film all the way through 3 time. Fell asleep every time. Finally, on the 4th try I made it...unfortunately. This movie is why I intensely dislike outer space sci-fi. Too many people trying to make a 'meaningful' movie in space. A little too Camus for me. No...a LOT too Camus for me. I didn't care about these people one way or the other. I didn't care about Clooney's fantasy, reality, or anything in-between. I didn't get it. I'm not embarassed that I didn't get it. I'm GLAD I didn't get it. This movie is the epitomy of a director masturbating on film...and not very well. This is MORE than ten lines. They've got to change this rule. Some movies, like this one can be summed up in ONE line. It stinks.
