Leave your thoughts about Berlin, I Love You.
| RogerEbert.comPeter SobczynskiTo be honest, the film does not exactly make a convincing case for the idea of Berlin as a hub of passion, or really for its existence as a movie. |
| TheWrapCandice FrederickAs well intentioned as its flurry of feelings and sentimental performances are, “Berlin, I Love You” isn’t given the space or the format to truly sail. It fails to build on political landscape or culture and instead tries to pull on the heartstrings of its audience with half-baked concepts. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreWildly uneven, as I said earlier. But at least some good character actors got a nice German vacation out of it, and Berlin, I Love You is pretty enough to make you plan your own. Just avoid the bars, brothels and laundromats and you’ll be fine. |
| Los Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenFor every poignant keeper...there’s a clunker. |
| The New York TimesGlenn KennyMost of this movie, which is almost entirely in English, is taken up with tone-deaf humanist tales. |
| VarietyPeter DebrugeBy and large, the film feels aimless and uninspired. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckMost anthology films give you the comfort of knowing that if you don't like one segment, another one will be following in just a few minutes. Berlin, I Love You perversely does the opposite. It makes you nervous that if you don't like one segment, which you surely won't, another mediocre-to-awful one will follow. |
| The PlaylistKimber MyersBerlin gives a good enough picture of its host city, delving into its complicated history and giving glimpses of its beauty. But few of the segments connect us to its inhabitants and visitors in any meaningful way. |
| ObserverRex ReedOn a scale of one to four stars, any film with a bit part for Helen Mirren, no matter how small and insignificant, deserves at least one. But nothing else about Berlin, I Love You rates a single mention. |
