Touching but never sentimental.

a simple story beautifully and poignantly told

Wenders' salient, head-clearing travelogue
August 24, 2015
With this film, Wenders crystallized his style of existential sentimentality.

Only just barely.
January 04, 2008
A fine and perhaps unique example of that trickiest of genres, the road movie, and the sort of film that really does deserve the cliched response: they don't make them like that any more, because they really don't.

It is a shame the excruciatingly wooden adult actors were not as natural as Yella Rottländer who played nine-year-old Alice.
January 04, 2008
The fragmentary approach could never be called exhilarating, but it has a sly humour, and the mood is sustained by Vogler and Rottlander as the unlikely companions.
January 04, 2008
Hauntingly photographed by Robbie Müller, it's one of this hugely uneven filmmaker's crispest, finest moments.
January 04, 2008
Captivating performances from both Vogler and Rottlander whose on-screen chemistry provides the beating heart of Alice In The Cities.
February 09, 2006
There are points when the director allows his voice to ring a little loudly from behind the camera, but the richness and depth of both the photography and the characterisation manage to brush any signs of preachiness and sentimentality from view.

It takes a long time for Wenders to get where he wants to go but it's worth the wait... .
