If you haven't seen Tarkovsky's 1972 SF masterpiece Solaris... you might find Steven Soderbergh's remake intriguing and compelling, because the story it tells is certainly haunting. If you have seen the Tarkovsky movie and couldn't make heads or tails of it, Soderbergh's synopsis could iron out most of the confusion, though it leaves you with little but the bare bones of the story--until the end, when it decides to get fancy and offer three enigmatic conclusions instead of Tarkovsky's one.
