Review of Solaris (2002) by Andrew O'hehir for Salon.com — 12 Apr 2006
Soderbergh's film is probably not the equal of either Tarkovsky's 1972 predecessor or the memorably Byzantine prose of Lem's novel, but in the end, almost despite himself, this able craftsman has made a brave and lovely companion piece to both of them.
His ending is pure cinema at its most marvelous and moving.
