Breathtaking

Rating: 9/10 (5 December 2000)

This film is awe-inspiring yet minimalistic, slow paced yet with thousands of years of time-range, emitting loneliness and warmth, grandeur and insignificance. A true work of art with imposing classical masterpieces playing at the background. It asks the questions and doesn't always give the answers. Moreover, what to say about these excellent visual effects, there are so many contemporary films which would be ultimately embarrassed. It is hands-down the defining sci-fi movie.
