Critic Reviews

  • John Petrakis, Chicago Tribune

    This film would be an excellent companion piece to Wim Wenders' Wings of Desire, which deals with angels looking down on this scarred city.

  • Jonathan Foreman, New York Post

    Hubertus' deliberate flouting of any chronological order turns his film into an incoherent collection of conversations and images.

  • Elvis Mitchell, New York Times

    Siegert allows Berlin Babylon to fulfill the promise that art and architecture can have.

  • Michael Atkinson, Village Voice

    The movie's concern with historicized urban planning may seem somewhat anecdotal to New Yorkers, but its textual torque is disquieting.

  • Ken Fox, TV Guide's Movie Guide

    We're hearing the voices of a conflicted nation as it considers how to handle its tumultuous past while defining itself for future generations.
