Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Awash in angelic choruses and panoramic scenery, the movie aspires toward a solemnity that Dana Stevens's prosaic psychobabbling screenplay cannot support.
Fresh: As a remake it's not as poetic as Wenders' masterpiece Wings of Desire, but it's supremely mounted (by ace lenser John Seale) and contains touching performances from Nicolas Cage and Meg Ryan deviating from their respective screen images.
Fresh: It manages to leave a pleasant afterglow for those in the mood for its kind of loving.
Rotten: Strains to achieve the enchantingly sublime, but ends up sinking to the depressingly ridiculous.
