Not worthy to tie Wim Wenders's shoelaces

I love, love, love "Wings of Desire." I went to see this remake hoping it would at least approach Wim Wenders's ethereal vision and joy.

Shot "Wings of Desire" in the kneecaps is the feeling I left the theater with. Dark, dismal and downright appalling.

Please, please, please see "Wings of Desire" before you comment on this movie. You'll be doing yourself and everyone else a favor. December 29, 2008

CityofAngels

I saw this movies when it first came out and fell in love with it. I bought the DVD for myself, and now my daughter is hooked on it as well! December 29, 2008

wrong rating

when I placed an order for this movie it was rated PG-13, when I got the order, it was rated R, I was very dissapointed as we try not to watch rated R movies in our home, yet I love this particular one. December 14, 2008

One of the BEST movies of all time!

WOW! Such a powerful movie! It is by FAR one of the best movies p.e.r.i.o.d. The chemistry was amazing, not to mention the acting, but of course when you have two phenomenal actors as Nicolas Cage and Meg Ryan, your bound to have an excellent movie. City of Angels is no exception!
Cage plays Seth who is an angel that comes to collect the dieing, Ryan plays Maggie a heart surgeon...without telling you all the good parts Seth shows himself to Maggie and he ends up trading immortality to be with her.
Funny, heartwarming, and an all around great movie! November 21, 2008

See the original

I know I'm going to be accused of being pretentious, but here goes: After seeing the original, Wings of Desire, I found City of Angels to be an annoying, sentimental nothing of a Hollywood movie. While we're on the subject, I can't understand why Nicholas Cage abandoned those edgy roles for which he is so gifted (e.g., Wild at Heart, Moonstruck, etc.). Anyway, see the evocative Wings of Desire; Columbo's in it! September 14, 2008
