Review of Solaris (2002) by Stephen Holden for The New York Times — 20 Dec 2012
Retooled into a sleek pop fable that doesn't bother to connect all its dots, the movie aspires to fuse the mystical intellectual gamesmanship of "2001: A Space Odyssey" with the love-beyond-the-grave romantic schmaltz of "Titanic," without losing its cool.
It's a tricky balancing act that doesn't quite come off.
