It's even less exciting than 2001: A Space Odyssey, but not quite as thought-provoking. It's still a great film, but I couldn't personally get into the way I could with 2001.

While the film conjures up comparisons to such past American pics as _Forbidden Planet_, _Dark Star_, _Journey to the Seventh Planet_, and _Blade Runner_ (to say nothing of the works of Tolstoy and Dostoyevski, whom our screen scientists, being Russkis, are fond of quoting), this ultimately emerges as fairly unique and original sci-fi fare. The trouble with it is that, at 167 minutes, it's just too damn long.

half of this movie would have been better off left on the cutting room floor. i have never seen such a failure in the editing sense of movie making. tarkovsky did an excellent job at directing it's just he doesn't know when to stop. had tarkovsky invested in a good editor this would have far surpassed the 02 american remake, but it happens that he did not and i was forced to watch lengthy scenes that had nothing to do with the plot.

I know I know... but even if its impressive in one point of view I did not get much from this film, espacially as the entensity died with it being to long.

It didn't grab me in the way Stalker did, and it is in need of some more editing in the first half, but it's still great. It builds up an amazing atmosphere, and poses some great questions to the audience.

I really wanted to love this but I have to admit that it dragged quite a bit. Not the opening drive into the city, though, which had a rhythm to it and invited some form of introspection on technology and literally "where does it take us."

Heavy-going but highly imaginative space fiction in which the menaces are ghosts materialized from the subjects' guilty pasts. The technology is superbly managed, but the whole thing is rather humourless.
