The one and only; an unqualified masterpiece and milestone.

This great masterpiece of German film is evocative and inventive from its first shot to its last.

A standout picture.

Reeks with decay and sexuality.

The Blue Angel it's clear to Von Sternberg, and to us, that he's connected with some pure being of cinema, whose power to ignite an audience was unstoppable. She became a great star.

Dietrich is the movie's primary cannon: Her amused eyes, open face, and relaxed sensuality monopolize our sympathies.
75
This is melodrama with broad theatrical flourishes, but Dietrich's sensuality is still a natural wonder, and with a new print, the Film Forum run offers a rare opportunity to see it big-screen-size.

Great movie, he start a little slow but whe you don't expect he blows your mind. The main character become crazy while the movie goes on, you dont know what is happening and the end is great, one of best 3 acts ever. I recomend this movie for everione that likes of good animation or amazing plot twists, or if do you like about crazy characters. Watch this movie, you only need to resist the boring beggining to deserve the full movie .

Es una gran película, como muestra que puedes ser un experto o un erudito en cierta materia, pero si no tienes la suficiente inteligencia emocional para saber cómo relacionarte con las demás personas, especialmente en este caso con el sexo opuesto, puedes terminar en la mayor de las ruinas. Siento que la primera parte de la película es algo forzada, como el profesor llega al club. Pero más allá de eso, me gusta cómo se muestra la decadencia del profesor por una mujer, una mujer que, es cierto, en un principio sentía cierta atracción por él, ya que era diferente a lo que veía comúnmente. Pero luego, cuando el profesor perdió su estatus, era lógico que también se esfumara la atracción, para terminar humillándose frente a los alumnos que alguna vez reprendió por ir al club al que ahora era parte. ¡Impactante!
