Review of Solaris (2002) by Gary T — 03 Feb 2015
WOW.....WOW.....WOW....WOW.....JUST SEEN THIS MOVIE 4 THE 1ST TIME N THINK THAT THIS IS SUCH A WEIRD MOVIE 2 WATCH, BUT ITS SUCH A REALLY WEIRD MOVIE 2 WATCH.......its got a good cast of actors/actresses throughout this movie....I think that George Clooney, Jeremy davies, viola davis, play good roles/parts throughout this movie.....I think that the director of this drama/romance/mystery/suspense/sci-fi/fantasy movie had done a great job of directing this movie because you never know what 2 expect throughout this movie.....WARNING THIS MOVIE CONTAINS STROBE LIGHTNING EFFECTS THROUGHOUT SOME SCENES THROUGHOUT THIS MOVIE.......
It is based on the 1961 science fiction novel of the same name by Polish writer Stanis?aw Lem.
Reflecting on Andrei Tarkovsky's critically acclaimed 1972 film Solaris (which was itself preceded by a 1968 Russian TV film), Soderbergh promised to be closer in spirit to Lem's novel.
The film is a meditative psychodrama set almost entirely on a space station orbiting the planet Solaris, adding flashbacks to the previous experiences of its main characters on Earth. Clooney's character struggles with the questions of Solaris' motivation, his beliefs and memories, and reconciling what was lost with an opportunity for a second chance.
A few weeks prior to the film's release, in early November 2002, the Motion Picture Association of America assigned the film with an R-rating primarily due to two scenes that depicted Clooney's naked backside. Creating further outburst among filmmakers against the MPAA and Directors Guild of America, Soderbergh vowed to have the film's rating appealed. Twelve days prior to the film's release, an appeals board overturned the R-rating for a PG-13 rating.
Man this is such a really strange movie 2 watch, but it is such a great movie 2 watch, it is such a really weird movie 2 watch, but it is such an enjoyable movie 2 watch, its got a great cast throughout this movie, but it is such a good movie 2 watch, with a good soundtrack throughout this movie......
