Wir (2003)
This is so poor!
What a very very poor film! What is it? Nothing. It tries to be something like half-documentary, authentic, profound... something! But it's like queuing many absolutely meaningless conversations... or not even that, but monologues of each character because these people don't really talk to each other! Is this a try to make them appear interesting? Well, monologues like "Oooh, a dog! I love dogs! I wanna have a dog!" are going through the whole film!!! If you watch "WIR" you get the impression that berlin students only drink, have sex and ... drink. That's what they do the whole time. No poesy, no creativity, no humor!!! NOTHING! Let's forget the film fast and watch L'Auberge Espagnole!

Symbolism
I excuse in advance for my bad English! It's late and I'm German! :-) When I read the critic that has already been done I get the impression that he hasn't understood the film. This is so much symbolic! The orchestra that is growing more and more during the film is not only because of fun, it means something! Find out yourself what it could mean for you! It's not a comedy film. Not everything that you can laugh about means it is funny. Sometimes people laugh about things which are actually very sad, and a part of THEM too, but they CAN'T see it!! It's a drama, everything about this film is drama, like normal life. The normal life is often so depressing and sad... Well, we try to make the best of it, we laugh... And more and more we loose the gift to see clear. It's our life that is represented in this film. WE ARE that ridiculous. Have you realized the bird that escaped from his cage? In the end it comes back... What could it mean?
