Rating: - Pretentious Twaddle.
I thought Wim Wenders was incapable of making a bad film until I saw this. Apparently the idea was conceived by Bono of U2 (who should clearly stick to churning out pop songs). It started out well, with lots of the clever signature devices that come with a Wenders film, and had a promising cast, flagshipped by big names such as Mel Gibson and Tim Roth. However, it quickly went downhill, and before long it became apparent that whatever story lay behind the film had run its course in the first ten minutes. The remainder of the film revolved around the relationship between Tom Tom and Eloise, both ... Read More

Me encantan las películas de Win Wenders y esta la verdad es que aunque ya tiene algo de tiempo no la conocía, mi descubrimiento de la misma fue por el video de U2 de una muy buen canción "The Ground Beneath Her Feet" que forma parte del soundtrack de esta película, en dicho video aparecen escenas de la película como es obvio y sale en un cameo al escritor Salman Rushdie, el mismo que el Ayatola Jomeini le pusiera precio a su cabeza por su libro "los versos satanicos" y que actualmente vive refugiado en USA, se que sera un placer por fin poder ver esta película.
Rating: - The Emperor Has No Clothes
Too bad there is not a rating of MINUS-stars. This film is garbage; boring, pretentious, and meaningless. Perhaps other reviews can attach their own fantasies and for them this DOA film may say something. But I found it an irritating waste of time. When a script and the characters within it have no definition, no relevance, and no entertainment value - watching it becomes either self-torture or an exercise in pretending that it serves some arty vision. This is the only time that Mel Gibson let me down. I understand he donated his services to this production and, in that case, he was very much overpaid.
Rating: - a 4 Star hotel.
I have never smiled sooo much through a 'Mystery film'.
This is a very cool movie.
Many have labeled it as an "Artsy" movie, to my ARTSY usually means abstract or undefined. This movie is straight forward, a guy is dead in the begining of the movie and the detective is trying to find out who killed him or if it was suicide. Very basic, but what is NOT basic is the suspects / witnesses.
Each one is living in his own world, you have the mentaly challenged, the [...] artiest, the one who thinks he's the 5th beatle. So the enjoyment is seeing how the detective *who is just ... Read More
Rating: - Much Ado About Nothing
Despite of having the hand of a true great director at the helm and a multi-star cast (including a top-notch soundtrack by U2), the movie lacks the rhythm and charisma needed to live up to its expectations, with great performances lost in a bad script. It's just a wanna-be art movie, and nothing else.
