As mentioned before, I can't really get a grip on Herzog. The opening sequence is magnificent and on a whole, the movie has that classic "Apocalypse Now"-feel to it that really appeals to me. But then there's the matter of the lack of a plot (or rather the director's lack of interest to actually focus on the plot). There are too many gaps in the story that need to be filled by the viewer and the premise (what is the actual premise?) disappears in favor of exploing other themes. Does every Werner Herzog movie have to come with a handbook?!
