Don't waste your time. It goes no where. Kept waiting for something to make sense. Nope. Didn't happen.

Wim Wenders became known as one of the leaders of New German Cinema in the 1970s. His work includes "The American Friend", "Until the End of the World" and "Buena Vista Social Club". "Every Thing Will Be Fine" is a very different turn for him. This look at the effect that a tragedy has on a writer (James Franco) takes a while to get going. Wenders's previous movies often looked at political issues, but this is more of a psychological drama. It comes across as flat. It's not terrible, but I expect more from Wenders.Basically, I recommend Wenders's other movies. "Until the End of the World" is his best. Probably one of the greatest movies ever made.

James Franco just keeps getting worse and worse as an actor and of course because he is a good looking guy and a "White" man in Hollywood it doesn't matter because he would continue to get film roles in which he plays the lead character flanked by actors and actresses that innocent film-goers such as myself love and have no choice but to suffer through just because they are starring opposite James Franco, the lucky Hollywood golden boy. Watching this film (which wouldn't have been bad if it didn't have Mr. Franco) was like watching a very long commercial break during Franco's ill-advised stint as an Oscar co-host opposite poor Anne Hathaway a few years back. How much longer do we have to endure this guy's sleep-walk excuse for an acting career?

This movie is an absolute delight for the senses. The cinematography and soundtrack are stunning. There are many jaw-dropping moments where one can't figure out how the lighting could be so gorgeous, and the soundtrack adds a level of beauty that lends tangibility to this profound story of forgiveness and acceptance. If you watch this at home, dim the lights and put the phone on airplane mode, because you don't want to miss a moment of this delicious sensual feast. If you are fortunate enough to be able to see it in 3D on the big screen, bring along your favorite loved one and share the experience.Did I forget to mention the director? Anyone who has followed the cinema of Wim Wenders knows of his unique ability to conjure a magic like no other. It's like looking through a window of his eyes, noticing the things only he sees, the feelings he only he senses. Obviously, this is not for everyone, and there are expectations of a more traditional form of storytelling for some. But the man is a poet, telling the things that can not be told, showing the things that can not be seen.It seems as though Mr. Wenders has used this magic with each of the actors, as there are many moments when one watches the expression of the mysterious emotions that emerge in this powerful story without a word. A true feather in the cap for James Franco, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Rachel McAdams. They each explore new techniques and territories in their acting, and work wonderfully with each other.
