Review:
I
found this one in the $3.44 bin after Thanksgiving, and i tell you, i
less want my $3.44 back than i want the hour and a half i wasted
watching it. Pointless, meandering and completely without meat or
taste, this one really is a total waste of time. I thought 'Hey! George
Clooney in space, has to be something there!' I was woefully wrong on
so many levels. The science fiction was more an afterthought, though
done cleanly, and the plot was mediocre at best. I was bored from the
beginning and realize it was more akin to 2001 A Space Odessy in a sort
of spiritual or metaphysical ponderment than a bit of entertainment.
trust me, the box lies!
Don't wait.
Guarantee your seat before you go and avoid a sold out
show. Skip the box office lines and buy movie tickets at

Ebert and Roper, the New York Daily News, and
Newsday all raved about it according to the cover, but i had a hard
time keeping my mind more on the movie than on my sunflower seeds. If
your looking to entertain the family, take this one and use it as skeet
target at the shotgun range, you'll get more out of it than if you
actually watched the blasted thing. The language is mild, and some
nudity, side and rear, give this one a PG-13, but the story is so bad i
think it wont be an issue for the kids who will grow bored and go shave
the cat before the movie is over.
Plot: George
Clooney Stars as Chris Kelvin, A psychologist sent to a remote space
station orbiting the Planet Solaris. The crew stopped communicating to
earth, and reports of strange things lead to a one man exploration to
determine the cause of the outage.
