Movie Reviews

Chicago Reader - 9/10 by Ben SachsWriter-director Jan Ole Gerster employs a loose, episodic structure that feels closer in spirit to TV comedy than feature filmmaking; though often funny, the movie never feels like more than the sum of its parts.
Variety - 9/10 by Peter DebrugeThis day-in-the-life indie says something profound about an entire generation simply by watching a feckless young man try to figure it out.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 9/10 by Steven ReaThere's a muted absurdist thread running through A Coffee in Berlin, and while Niko's quest for the titular brew devolves into a series of whimsical frustrations, the filmmaker's motives are more serious.
Blu-ray.com - 8/10 by Brian OrndorfDespite Schilling's dutiful effort to embody a man who's trying to slip out of view, A Coffee in Berlin runs out of inspiration, and even the Woody Allen adoration isn't enough to bring it back to life.
Film-Forward.com - 8/10 by Nora Lee MandelA day in the life of a slacker beautifully reveals old, new, amusing, and ironic contradictions in changing Berlin. His past and the city's keep seeping through the present.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Michael PhillipsThe film's surprising, enveloping jazz score is often deliberately at odds with Niko's moody outlook.
indieWire - 8/10 by Eric KohnThere's wisdom lurking in its light, witty approach, which gradually transforms from a series of silly misadventures into something far more perceptive.
Combustible Celluloid - 8/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonA Coffee in Berlin is only a good film, but it does have a very good ending.
Newcity - 8/10 by Ray PrideHe's not nearly young Werther: just a young ditherer.
Paste Magazine - 8/10 by Travis M. AndrewsBerlin is gorgeously shot in black and white and scored with loose, atmospheric jazz as Niko wanders from one seemingly unrelated event to another.
