what a load of crap..was gonna give this 'masterpiece' a shot after watching the clooney version, starting was dull in a field talking blablablabla then theres a man driving for 20 freaking minutes in tokyo..what the heck..turned off after that and never looked back
shareThat scene put my wife to sleep both times she tried to watch, but she falls asleep when I drive also. BTW, I just watched the film for the 4th or 5th time today and timed the drive scene. It was only about 4.5 minutes.
Sorry to hear you didn't make it through the film. It's probably the most beautiful and moving science fiction film I've ever seen.
Whoa. That was the fourth or fifth time you watched Solaris that day?
shareSwitched off 'after' watching the ride all the way through? That doesn't sound very smart.

shareHoly shineola, I thought the freeway scene was the best part! Totally hypnotizing. But of course today most Americans don't know anything about anything.
shareWhy does it always have to come down to that - I'm not an American and don't feel that we need constant action from a film but I don't think that 5 minutes of watching a car driving through tunnels added anything to the film at all. It is at the end of the day entertainment and storytelling and I just don't get what the story of that scene was
