6/10
not exactly coherent, but very interesting to watch
7 September 2005
Every so often, I come upon a film that I can't really describe as either GOOD or BAD--they just seem to transcend words and explanation. What you think of this movie will depend a lot upon whether or not you pay strict attention and try to make sense of the movie or just turn off your brain and watch the beauty of this movie. If you are one of those who want it to make sense, then you will sadly disappointed, as the movie abounds with plot holes and inconsistencies. But, if you just turn off your brain, you will be amply rewarded. I think I fall more in the first group, as at times I got awfully bogged down by the MANY problems with the plot (naming all of them would take pages, believe me). But, I gotta respect the makers of this film to taking risks and trying to produce something unique!

One final word. This is the sequel to Wings of Desire and the original is a much more satisfying movie overall. If you only see one, see Wings of Desire.
