"A bitter, deadpan parody of all things Romantic, Wenders's film is also so ironic about its own emptiness that it ends up being something pure: a pop dirge about how never sitting still may be the only answer to meaninglessness."

Village Voice"Wenders looks at young rockers through a lens of high culture and applies the theatrical fervour of the Enlightenment to the rumpled rounds of modern buskers."
