Comment vivre avec nos morts ? Si l'on songe aux Autres d'Amenabar, au Sixième sens de Shymalan ou à Sous le sable de François Ozon, on constate que c'est une thématique qui traverse le cinéma contemporain. Raviver le souvenir, survivre à l'être aimé, autant de thèmes propices aux effets poétiques dans le meilleur des cas, lacrymaux dans la plupart d'entre eux. De l'inventif et prolixe Steven Soderbergh – qui passe allègrement sans forcer son très grand talent de Ocean's Eleven à Full Frontal, en passant par Sexe, mensonges et vidéo ou Kafka –, il ne fallait s'attendre à rien de connu. Associé pour l'occasion à James Cameron pour la production, il s'empare de ces thèmes sous l'angle de la SF. Mais attention : une SF sans effets spéciaux, ou presque… Une sorte de SF dépressive, lente, douloureuse, nostalgique. Dominé par des tonalités bleutées et métalliques dans l'espace, ocres et chaleureuses sur terre, sa méditation sur la mémoire et le temps évoque le travail qu'aurait pu accomplir Alain Resnais à partir du même matériau. Plutôt qu'un remake du film réalisé par le Russe Tarkovski en 1972, le réalisateur de Traffic en propose une nouvelle adaptation et une lecture toute personnelle. Et c'est réellement bouleversant, à l'image du poème de Dylan Thomas qui irrigue en eaux profondes ce film de SF bien singulier, tenu de bout en bout par un George Clooney et une Natasha McElhone – Truman Show, Mrs. Dalloway – impeccables. --Sylvain Lefort

Product Description

Superstar George Clooney turns in a stellar performance in this "brilliant sci-fi movie" (New York Daily News) from Academy Award winners Steven Soderbergh (2000 - Best Director, Traffic) and JamesCameron (1997 - Best Picture, Titanic). Aboard a lonely space station orbiting a mysterious planet, terrified crew members are experiencing a host of strange phenomena, including eerie visitors who seem all too human. And when psychologist Chris Kelvin (Clooney) arrives to investigate, he confronts a power beyond imagining that could hold the key to mankind's deepest dreams…or darkest nightmares. Co-starring Natascha McElhone and Jeremy Davies, Solaris is "mind-bending!" (Rolling Stone)

5.0 out of 5 stars Solaris Feb 7 2012
Format:DVD
Très satisfait du produit. Pas cher et sans aucune défectuosité. Livraison assez rapide. Cependant, je ne comprends pas pourquoi ce produit a été expédié de Schiedam, Hollande! Mais peu importe l'origine, l'important c'est que le produit soit en bon état et cela me satisfait.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent movie, but maybe not for everyone Jun 10 2004
Format:DVD
Personally I found this to be an amazing movie, and have watched it many times. Many people do not truly understand this film, and because of this they say lots of bad things about it. This isn't a thrilling sci-fi movie, and its really not aboutsci-fi in the first place. its more of a philosophical movie, which questions our opinions in life. If you're looking for a movie that is truly fascinating, and will leave your mind in deep, deep thought, then you should love this movie. It keeps you thinking about it long after its over. In fact, I watched this movie several times before fully understanding it. If this movie seems interesting to you, I would definitely check it out. But if your mind can only be satisfied by nonstop action, look elsewhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful film, despite what others have said Mar 27 2006
Format:DVD
For some reason, most science fiction films in the last 20 years have really been horror movies set in outer space: hideous alien monsters threaten good looking 90120 types, maybe with a token black or foreign accent character thrown in for some comic relief, yadda yadda yadda. Solaris is a welcome change of pace from all of that. It is beautifully photographed, well acted, and tells an amazing story that - gasp - makes you think instead of spoon feeding you a Hollywood ending. It's a fantastic, moving, and very compelling film. So if you want some Big Mac science fiction, get something lame like Starship Troopers - if you want some real science fiction, get Solaris.

1.0 out of 5 stars Awful
This movie was not worth the time it took to sit there watching it. I strongly recommend not wasting your money on this. Rent it or find some other way of watching it if you must.

4.0 out of 5 stars Thoughtful but creepy
Visualy and auditorily stunning and artful, but a bit scarey. It's a psychological thriller as well as a love story, scarier than 2001, and it contains blood, corpses and... Read more

On the up side, good sets and costumes. Lame special effects combo with a plot so crippled that it's wheelchair needs crutches. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Risks are welcome but failures are noticed
There's no reason why more than one strong movie version of Solaris can't exist. But they don't.

I looked forward to this version. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars A great non-SciFi movie
Yes, this movie is deliberately paced (aka sloooow), and there is no action in it to speak of. And it is not about some smart planet whatsoever. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars there's a good half hour show here...
...unfortunately it's been stretched out to an agonizingly slow two hour movie. Most of this movie is shots of people staring silently or empty rooms. Read more
