	 Aroview: Marianne Sagebrecht plays an aloof German tourist who meets a group of equally lovable eccentrics at a remote desert inn. A quirky, expressive and utterly original ensemble piece.

		- 4 stars (Very Good) Somewhere between Disneyland and Las Vegas, in the desert off Route 66, Jasmin wanders into a shabby motel complex - frequented by a bizarre collection of individuals, and run by the bossy Brenda. An enchanting and off-beat delight. ~GenXGirl  
- 5 stars (Exceptional) This is one of the funniest films made:   Germany meets Monty Python. The Frau stranded among authentic, dysfunctional desert folk is  believable, delightful and funny. Each actor is faithful to character and all worthy of a Peter Sellars award. ~rakau  
- 4 stars (Very Good) A cheerful lightweight film, carried by excellent acting, especially by Jack Palance. Sadly, the copycat desert "Baghdad Cafe", operated by a Bedouin family on the highway south of Palmyra, Syria, is probably no more. It, too, was a friendly place ~Sandy
