A beautiful psychosexual drama that questions our sentience between reality and desire. 8/10

That was a particularly fascinating and haunting novel; but sadly the film did not do it justice. Tarkovsky made beautiful films, but this film, along with 'Stalker', were terribly adaptations, replacing the heart of the stories with beautiful-yet-yawn-inducing imagery. The sham he made of Roadside Picnic I could never forgive. That novel could be an incredible film, too bad Tarkovsky was not up to the task. It may be that the special effects necessary to portray the planet and its incarnations in 'Solaris' were above his budget, and probably anyone would have had a hard time with the technology available back then. It might have been easier to portray The Zone, so I imagine it was lack of skill and/or/and money to funnel into special effects that made him take the films in the directions he chose.




2/10 -- bleh.
