This movie is one of a kind. It has such a heartfelt meaning. I don't think anyone can watch this movie and say anything derogitory about it.

Cage is great, this story is the worst, really
Added 7/18/2009
I really like Cage's acting. He is great in "Next" and all the National Treasure movies (I am hoping there are many of them). But I have "City of Angels" listed as the worst movie ever made. Now, why would I say that? It glamorizes the "real very first sin" and that is an angel disobeying God by rejecting the place God placed them in (the first sin was when an angel wanted God's place). Yes, I know it's just a movie but this is literally the lowest possible moral rung. There is no going back for an angel. There is no plan of redemption. A fallen angel goes from the best possible to the worst possible condition without the possibility of return. The other angels would not look upon him with any form of admiration but rather with horror at what he did to destroy himself and it would greatly negatively affect the lady if he was allowed to contact her at all at that point. He would be the worst thing for her and his "affection" would be the very opposite of true love. It is a sad, sad tale of the true beginning of all woes. This movie confuses the results of good and evil.

city of angels
Added 7/11/2009
We have looked for a copy of this movie in retail stores and even preowned copies at video rental establishments. We have found it twice paired with Michael on the same dvd. We own a copy of Michael, so we did not want to pay extra money for the two. We were happy to see there were a couple copies available on Amazon at a reasonable price. It was not much of a gamble for us because we have seen the movie. We were however concerned for the condition of the movie. The case was a little damaged inside and out when we received it, but the disc was in good condition. We enjoyed the movie again and have added it to our collection. Overall, this was a good buying experience from Amazon.

City of Angels

It's a different type movie, but I love watching the faces and eyes of the two characters. A bit different, but enjoyed it!

Not worthy to tie Wim Wenders's shoelaces
Added 12/29/2008
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.
