Title: Roger Ebert is mostly right
Review: The philosophy and intelligence that went into making this film is very admirable, but hey it doesn't make it a good film. Remember, it's the execution of the film that matters. And I think this film is executed in a very awkward fashion. Angelopoulos is clearly going for something transcendental here, with his sometimes-magical imagery (like the Lenin statue and the blue ship). But there are so many awkwardly staged scenes and Keitel's performance is so out-of-place that the film just doesn't work for me. If you want to see a really tremendous Eastern European film, go rent "Before the Rain", not this.
