Obra maestra del cine mudo.
Metrópolis nos presenta una ciudad distópica donde la sociedad "perfecta" está sustentada en la explotación de la clase obrera, la cual vive en una ciudad subterránea.
Se ha mal interpretado mucho la idea principal de la película "El corazón debe de se...( read more)
Fritz Lang's depiction of the future based on if things continued to keep going on the way they were during his time. Great classic sci-fi film, and a vision far beyond its time.
Amazing for its innovations, the first science fiction movie ever, you can see its traces in every sci-fi movie up to today.
I can easily see why George Lucus got so obseesed with this movie when he was writing the Star Wars trilogy. It's a GREAT movie, the first sci fi movie ever made, infact. And that leading lady! She was just plain brilliant. Even if not all of the scenes survived to present date, ...( read more)
Fritz Lang's timeless epic and a beloved gem in the cinema of science fiction.
It was okay, I guess. I definitely respect it for its ingenuity at the time and the place it has in cinema history. But the plot is kind of scattered and the movie kind of falls apart in the last few scenes.
One to own! A love or leave it film- I had mixed feelings: love theme and presentation; storyline and development not too great-In depth Review Coming Soon :-D
incredible visuals for the time, but everything else about the movie is very dated. lots of cliched action scenes and plot twists. there were some interesting allusions that i couldn't put anything very deep onto. maybe if i saw it again. strikes me as more of a blockbuster type ...( read more)
ok I adore silent films but i jsut COULD NOT GET TROUGH THIS ONE! idk what it was, it was just so,,,, SLOW! and usually idont find silent classics tha way. i felt like there was something i wasnt getting,.....
all in all-?????
gran clásico de la ciencia ficción precursora de mucho de lo que se hoy en día
I'm not really a huge fan of the silent film genre... Too technically behind for my taste. But I make an exception for this one. Metropolis was so far ahead of it's time with the timeless tale of class distinction and some ancient but charming special effects...
A silent classic that influenced the look of so many films to come later. So stylish.
Après la période de crise économique qui sévissait toujours lors de la création des Nibelungen, le marks reprend de la valeur en Allemagne, ce qui donne un second souffle à son industrie cinématographique. Parallèlement, Thea von Harbou publie, d'abord dans un journal, puis sous ...( read more)
Every Sci-fi fan should watch this film. It's really good. Unlike some Silent films which can drag this film never does.
I loved this film! It´s incredible how much you can do with mirrors and scale models! I love the movements of the extras and the masses! A great film!
Parallel to our own society, woe to us all, we're basically screwed.
While the actual plot is fairly dated and corny(in fact Lang would latter apologize for the ending) it still sports some of the most powerful images ever. The would go on to influence damn near every sci-fi film that came after, as the dystopian movie that started it all.
Mi favorita
Una de las mejores peliculas de ciencia ficcion que he visto. Me demuestra que los problemas de entonces siguen siendo problemas ahora.
hermosa escenografia.
Much has already been said about this film, so this will be short since I don't really have much, if anything, new to contribute. I will say this though: I knew that this fim was extremely influential ina number of ways, but it wasn't until I finally watched it that I realized ju...( read more)
Excelente pelicula!
Quien dijo que el cine mudo es aburrido ?
Fritz Lang era un genio!
Review will be written when/if re-watched (Probability: Low).
First viewing: 09.03.2003
Although it is an important film for the labor force, the movie isn't the most enjoyable to watch over and over again.
It's the biggest deal ever in the best genre ever with one of the best logos ever AND it has robots. Cha-CHING.
OK film. It's been a while since I watched it, but if I recall correctly (and it's been a good 20 years since I saw it) it was kind of like that Star Trek episode "The Cloud Minders."
I have no idea how they pulled off the special effects. Epic storytelling.
C'est dommage, le film est ennuyant! Je m'attendais à quelque chose d'intéressant, dans un sens, ça l'est, mais je trouve que le résultat final est...boiteux! haha
"Le médiateur entre le cerveau et les mains doit être le c?ur" d'accord...ouais, c'est beau, et donc....t'a fait un...( read more)
Probably the first distopia movie. Interesting story, obvious populist message. The only drawback for modern audiences is it is way too long and slow.
A very good movie. If you like movies you need to see this one. Fritz Lang was way ahead of his time when he directed this master piece.
Can't wait to see the newly discovered cut of the movie. A wonderment to behold.
pretty interesting film about social crisis between workers and owners in capitalism. In fiction and future aspect of it. The storyline was excellent and was impressed with the music and the acting.
This was so ahead of its time, when i watched i was amazed and thought "wow there are movies nowadays with worse effects than this"
an incredible movie beyond its time... everything about this movie is so enticing.
