Critic Reviews for Until the End of the World (Bis ans Ende der Welt)
All Critics (17) | Top Critics (2) | Fresh (15) | Rotten (2)
Before, one left the theater befuddled; one now leaves the theater equally befuddled but also moved, even genuinely disturbed.
[A] sci-fi masterpiece.
The film is funny, and the story has all the logic -- or illogic -- of a dream. It never aspires to anything more concrete.
What appears to be a cosmopolitan picaresque moves from moment to moment to momentousness,.. Wenders' dream is only just now released in an integral, near-5-hour walkabout... A great and poetic and caring film has arrived at last.
Watching it now, even with its dull patches, it seems like a miracle.
Much of Wenders' sprawling saga is absurd, and some of it pretentious, yet set in 199, this film, like all of his previous work, raises interesting questions about the role of modern technology and its impact on identity and interpersonal communication.
Audience Reviews for Until the End of the World (Bis ans Ende der Welt)
Normally I prefer a 'director's cut' of a film but this time I'll take the edited down version gladly. Four and a half hours is just too damn long for a road trip drama even if some of the ideas in it are akin to great films like Brainstorm. So 4 stars for the two and a half hour version and barely 3 for the 'test of endurance' version.
