[A] sci-fi masterpiece. Full Review
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Aug 22, 2018
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. Full Review

Rating: 4.5/5 -- A bit lumpy (with so much left on the cutting room floor, that was probably inescapable), but it's the kind of glorious lumpiness that only comes from a great filmmaker. Full Review

Rating: 5/5 -- Watching it now, even with its dull patches, it seems like a miracle. Full Review

Rating: B- -- 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. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

Full director's cut of Wim Wenders' prophetic epic.. A world-spanning sci-fi fever dream! Conceived as the ultimate road movie, this decades-in-the-making science-fiction epic from Wim Wenders follows the restless Claire Tourneur (Solveig Dommartin) across continents as she pursues a mysterious stranger (William Hurt) in possession of a device that can make the blind see and bring dream images to waking life. With an eclectic soundtrack that gathers a host of the director’s favorite musicians, along with gorgeous cinematography by Robby Müller, this breathless adventure in the shadow of Armageddon takes its heroes to the ends of the earth and into the oneiric depths of their own souls.
  • Full 287-minute director’s cut in a new 4K digital restoration, supervised by director Wim Wenders
  • New introduction by Wenders
  • Conversation between Wenders and musician David Byrne
  • Behind-the-scenes program detailing the creation of the film’s high-definition sequences
