I agree with all that. I really liked Solaris (2002)
The Solaris planet was done nicely, beautiful and mystic...almost heavenly. The planet and the music score gave the movie an enthrall quality.
George Clooney did an excellent job of playing the role realistically and with a somberness and sense of guilt. He's a fine actor.
I liked the actress who played his wife, Natascha McElhone as well.
The guy on the space station who was like a 'flaky dude'. Was way over the top, almost comical. His character took away from the movie.
I like the women scientist on the space station, she gave the movie some intensity and energy.

I disliked the ending. It would have been a cleaner ending with more emotional feel, if it ended like this: George Clooney boards the spacecraft for the return flight home. We see Solaris receding in space. Inside the spacecraft we see Clooney slowly approaching the port view hole window, he has a look of regret that shows on his face. He slowly falls to his knees and presses his face to the port hole window as Solaris recedes into the distance.

I'm watching the 2002 Solaris for the first time right now, and never saw the original classic. Soderbergh does use the dark nicely, making it outright elegant. I'm halfway thru it. Doesn't seem to be alot of meat to the story, probably good then it's 90 minutes, but he makes up for it in mood.
Haven't seen it yet, but posting this for the record: The movie is a rare one that convinced me to borrow the book soon after watching it, and I loved the book. Then I watched the movie again, and loved it more. I doubt the 2002 one will hold up, but I think I'll enjoy it.

Just finished it. I liked it but wish I'd seen the classic first. Some unanswered questions but might check out the original sometime and see if it explained things clearer regarding the ending.

I don't think I've seen it since it was in theaters but I absolutely loved it then. Back then I didn't even know there was a previous version or a novel. I just went to see a movie and I found it very moving.

Be warned. The 1972 ending is way different from the book's ending. Both good, though.
