Director and cast
Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
If you're looking for a defining Wenders image, try starting with the gloomy angels in overcoats in Wings Of Desire.
An exercise in whimsy.
If any of these characters were half as resonant as Wenders appears to think they are, the film might have seemed charming instead of merely stranded.
Audiences partial to this rather rarefied material will find plenty to enjoy in the technically polished production, but those not on Wenders' wavelength will be seriously alienated.
