Tarkovsky's masterpiece leaves u stunned, leaves u pondering on love, truth and human instincts....It is difficult to express in words the feeling one gets after watching this movie.
The film is in the guise of a science fiction-dont let that put you off....this is film questions our existence as humans...wot does it mean to be human???? I will remember a few dialogues of the movie forever- to a reference of an action being inhuman, it is said...."we all are human in our own ways"....."I am becoming human......I am in love" ....wot is love? when Hari, the protagonist's(Kris) 'wife' asks "Did you ever think of me?", Kris replies..."Only when I was sad".....we take for granted that truth is what we can verify, possibly with our own eyes.....the film is based in a planet where the dreams materialize.....everyone can see them and feel them......is that the truth??????
For the first time, after watching the movie I had a feeling that we are too few on earth....just a handful of a billion concentrated on a speck in a fathomless universe.....
If you are a movie buff and have not watched this movie, u have missed something very valuable....
Overall 9/10
