Critic Reviews

Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
There are some visually striking and dramatically effective moments in this film about two children who leave home for Germany in search of their father, but the 126 minutes seemed to last forever.
-
Stephen Holden, New York Times
There are sights in the film that once seen cannot be forgotten.

Hal Hinson, Washington Post
To say that the Greek filmmaker Theo Angelopoulos is a movie poet doesn't mean that the poetry isn't patience-trying or mediocre.

Desson Thomson, Washington Post
Angelopoulos observes this youthful epic with seasoned restraint.

, TV Guide's Movie Guide
Unfortunately, Angelopoulos' conceptual grip is so vise-like that these two never seem to break out into anything resembling the spontaneous behavior of kids.
