Last weekend I rented the sci-fi flick Solaris.  It's slow, but definitely thought provoking I think.  Sort of a 2001: A Space Odyssey meets Sphere.  Anyway, I enjoyed it, even if the critics didn't.
I liked it too...

It was one of those Think Different movies (oh wait, will Apple sue me now??). I like movies you have to see on one of your bright moments.
To each thier own...

Slow? 
If it weren't for the credits... I would not have known when the movie was over. 
You could have compressed the entire movie into about 15 minutes... then you would have the beginning of a good movie. 
But, that is just my opinion...

Which version did you watch? 
I haven't seen the 
recent remake yet, but the 
original version is one of my favourite films.

It was the recent remake.  I haven't seen the original version, nor have I read the book.  Prolly should (on both counts).
