Review of Good Bye, Lenin! (2003) by A.o. Scott for The New York Times — 10 Nov 2011
Much too long. It starts to feel like a flabby, dramatic version of the first "Austin Powers" movie, another exercise in living anachronism as a storytelling device. By the time the picture's final note about German reunification is struck, "Lenin!" has raised a wall of indifference for the audience.
