A zippy silent comedy with ceaseless energy. Full of fluid athletic gags and action set pieces. Never a dull moment. It all culminates with one big unforgettable stunt of death-defying heights. Fun watch!

This is at the top of the silent comedy genre. Harold Lloyd masterfully conveys a plethora of emotion without the use of dialogue. The stunts and sight gags are usually very funny and also impressive, given that Lloyd performed most of the stunts himself. For those bored by silent films, give this a viewing. It has a laugh-a-second madcap pace and infectious energy that doesn't need sound to succeed.

This would have been an excellent movie if it wasn't for the horribly racist scene where the black man gets scared.
