Metropolis

To be honest, I had an extremely hard time getting into this movie. It had a story that was lacking and the pure fact that it was a silent film put me right to sleep every time I watched it. This could be due to the fact that I am desensitized by modern movies, however it was lacking in a few things. The set up was drawn out and the conflict between father and son was a bit cliche. The special effects were superb for the time, but all-in-all many scenes could have been cut out to save some time and to make the story more concise.
