8.6 Fritz Lang displayed the concepts of the future and science fiction on the screen naturally and realistically, creating special effects of robots, scheduling group performances, and shaping the background. These are all epoch-making milestones in science fiction movies. Although it is a silent film, the expression is clear and the style is comedic, and the look and feel is not boring. Several symbols of montage and expressionism make the visual effect of the film very good. Brigitte...

How can such a movie be made in 1927! It should be in 2027, 3027, 4027... German Expressionism, and it ends but doesn't stop there. It belongs to every thousand years, dreams, nightmares, struggles, and eerie beauty wrapped in fear and hysteria. With such a wonderful musical expression, dancing puppets and beauties, robots and devils. The devil chops off your head with a scythe, and you see an...

The earliest dystopian cyberpunk films, with cyber control and punk rebellion. In the sci-fi films of the era after direct radiation, there is a Metropolis screw in each CT. Cyberpunk originally had nothing to do with neon lights. It aimed to explore the confrontation between man and power and high pressure, the relationship between man and machine, and considered the negative impact of technology on human beings. The advance of "Metropolis" is that there is "Metropolis" first, and then there...

I am glad that such a movie was completely restored in 2010. It is indeed a very good movie. 1895's "The Arrival of the Train" may have scared people, but 1927's "Metropolis" surprised me - how much did the director spend to hire so many actors and build such a grand the scenery. Finally, I complained that the daring labor movement was shaped into a mob...

(150min) The idea of this film is very good. The female protagonist's body language is sophisticated and provocative, and the others show pain either with a head or a bitter face. The male and female protagonists of "Titanic" resemble the male and female protagonists of the film, and the prototype may be the flooded part of the film. Can't tempt human nature, who didn't have a good intention at the beginning. The only people who can stand the test in their lives are the few people who are...

The public are ignorant and gullible witch hunters. The rulers are empty-handed, and they are helpless in the face of crises. Leftists and intellectuals-scientists-women have been demonized as demagogues and behind-the-scenes masterminds who brought about the flood. The "heart" as the key to solving social conflicts seems so pale. Expressionism reached its creative peak and end here, and the future of German society in a few years' time was looming and unstoppable. Five stars for art style,...

Such a serious film, I have always felt very fond of it. No matter how serious a silent film is, there is still a hint of humor in it, but it does not hinder the light of the film...

The biblical interpretation of the Tower of Babel is a perfect sermon! Religious awareness, social reflection, and endless imaginative creativity have created such a masterpiece. Of course, Lang's admirable images and expressiveness are still suffocating, but they have not concealed the strength of the content itself. It is not enough to have a rich imagination, it is the precise foresight and reality that make the film immortal. The man inside talks like he wants to kiss! That's...

High school students' perceptions
The proletariat is indeed the easiest to incite, and this is one of the reasons for its oppression; the lack of destruction of construction is no different from hooliganism, and this film confirms this again.
Regrettably, however, the discussion of capitalists' oppression of laborers and how the...

The Advance Consciousness of "Metropolis"
Fritz Lang's "Metropolis", released in 1927, is a film that has gone down in history. Although 90 years have passed, many of the settings in the film are still fresh and fashionable for the present. Science fiction, war, and religious themes still cannot get around these restrictions, and they are...
