Beautifully rendered and performed meditation on life (and the afterlife) features in Falk one of the best and most touching "meta" performances this side of Malkovich, with Ganz and Sander appropriately stoic as a pair of yearning, wistful angels. Packs a lot of weighty philosophical musings into its essential lack of narrative, and in this sense it's more of a sensory experience than a traditional narrative journey, but extremely satisfying (and moving) on that basis.

Damiel: "When the child was a child, it was the time of these questions. Why am I me, and why not you? Why am I here, and why not there? When did time begin, and where does space end? Isn't life under the sun just a dream? Isn't what I see, hear, and smell just the mirage of a world before the world? Does evil actually exist, and are there people who are really evil? How can it be that I, who am I, wasn't before I was, and that sometime I, the one I am, no longer will be the one I am?"

While I might have some questions about the theological implications posited by this movie, there's a certain "good" feeling it leaves. The beginning moves glacially and even the ending seems too wordy ("speak with the tongues of angels" notwithstanding). There's an interesting love story that pushes us along, but there's no great surprise when it comes together. With its beautiful cinematography (and hauntingly beautiful shots of a now-different Berlin), it's worth a second watch.

Melek, Almanya, Berlin, Berlin Duvarı, Kütüphane, Film Seti, Sirk, İnsanları izleyen meleklerden biri bir gün insan olmak istediğini söyler. Sonra melekler mekanları gezer insanların iç seslerini dinlerler. (Birisi de gurbetci bir Türk'tür.) Nihayetinde filmin son yarım saatinde melek insan olur. Melek olduğu sahneler siyah beyaz, insan olduğu sahneler renklidir. RENK, Sürekli iç sesler dinleten bir film.

زیر آسمان برلین دربارهٔ فرشته‌هایی نامرئی و فنا ناپذیر است که در سطح شهر برلین پخش شده‌اند و افکار انسان‌ها را می‌شنوند و آنهایی که دچار سردرگمی و استرس شده‌اند را آرام می‌کنند.با اینکه شهر از تراکم انسان‌ها پر است اما بسیاری از انسان‌ها از معشوق‌های خود دور افتاده‌اند.

Wings of Desire kusursuz bir film ama ben bu şahesere film demek istemiyor ve çok daha ötesi olduğunu iddia ediyorum. Başyapıt, resmen başyapıt! Wim Wenders'ın sinemaya bıraktığı bir kutsal kitap niteliğinde sanki..

It was so dry I almost quit, but I stood my ground and turned out to love it - and I have no idea why. It is incredibly heavy on monologues, but the film just has so much to say that there is so much more to it. Its a bit messy, a bit aimless, but it certainly gets its point across.

This one never quite grabbed me. A lot of the dialog comes off as philosophical musing for the sake of musing. As someone who reads a lot of philosophy, stuff like this should be right up my alley. But here it's often forced into the dialog and what they muse over is repetitive and pretentious. As a result, they make the central love story feel trivial, which is a shame because it's an interesting premise. Also not overly fond of the cinematography - The overuse of angle lens is annoying.
