I've got both the German and English cuts on DVD and have seen it many times. Kinski and Herzog do a good job as usual. It's very well done but for most people it's probably pretty...dry. It's slowly paced. It's what I usually call more of an "Art Film". You don't really watch it for the gripping action or witty dialogue or the special effects. You watch it for the mood, and the feel and the way it's shot. A film buff or another director would watch it and go "it's beautiful". The average person turns it off after a few minutes because they got bored.
