"Let nothing divide us." "Shoulder to shoulder." "All against one." The massacre scene was very horrific, so disturbing especially the scene which The Untouchables could have been emulated, the baby on the stairs. Battle scenes were so realistic and artistically shot. The bountiful extras never disappointed while the score, editing and camera work was exceptional. Battleship Potemkin is a monumental war film filled with drama.

Besides the iconic baby carriage on the stairs scene, this is a mastery of editing and character moments that are placed within epic battle scenes. One of the best films from the 20's.

This movie was incredible. One of the very first full-length movies of its time and its still silent. The Staircase scene made my skin crawl and my body shiver as I watched in horror as the assailants merged on the town. I absolutely was overjoyed at the outcome of this movie, and for being so dated, this movie was brilliantly accuarte in its depiction of political justice.

Eistenstein shows his revolutionary use of montage that forever changed the world of film. Also, this is a very exciting movie that should captivate even the most unattentive viewers.

A film that revolutioned cinema forever. It cotains scenes used later in movies. The directing is fantastic, the story is sad, but powerful. The cinematography is outstanding. And remember that is 82 years old. Watch it thinking in how good it was for its time, and how many crap you see today, in the "modern" era, with all the tech.
