In the future, where the society is divided into thinkers and workers, one man appears to be more than just a thinker and more than a worker.

I love Fritz Lang (the director) but have never cared for this film. And usually I like silent films too and this is considered to be a masterpiece. However, I'd go with M (also by Fritz Lang).

Many people have compared this to "The Matrix." While it is similar, it is actually very close to "Dark City." Metropolis is a silent movie you need to see to appreciate. You must see this if you are a true sci fi fan!

It definitely is a political piece, first and foremost. And, since I agree with the basic political message, then that gives it points automatically in my book. But, besides that, it has a very intriguing plot. Although, the ending leaves much to be desired.

Could be my metropolis.

As a sci-fi fan you have to see this one. It's a perfect movie. Perfect acting, music, direction. What about the art of the movie? Oh man... Lang was a genius. This movie has scenes that are "prophetic". Every day when I go up the stairs of the subway to work, It came this movie to my mind. Remember when you watch it: It's 80 years old. 80. Best silent ever.
