a fantastic piece of entertainment represent five little story and five city and four language . that all . this movie have no message but it portray five region of the world most sensitively . the l. a. episode be the weak . it be not bad but it have one big problem represent it be the first one . people start watch the movie and expect something sensational . this first episode can not present anything spectacular and only first class character act . there be no big surprise or twist and the episode be not particularly funny or anything . honestly and when i saw the first minute of this movie i think represent ` o dear and i be go to fall asleep . then and the n. y. story come . this one make me laugh real hard and and it make armin mueller stahl one of my favourite actor . i start to love this movie and and i be well prepared for the paris episode and which be and in my opinion the best and the most satisfying of them . i find the story of the roberto benigni episode rather stupid and but his talent in exaggerate ( so he do this even seven year before 1999 oscar ceremony . ) make up for it . then and the huge contrast represent the lively episode be follow by the dreariest . finnish worker tell each other story from their life and each try to tell the sad . ` night on earth be not a movie for everybody but i think it be and in any case and the ideal movie to watch on television at two oclock in the morning .
