Movie Reviews

Senses of Cinema - 10/10 by Helen GraceIt is still a pleasure to view again a film which, without fully knowing it, wrote the grammar of cinema.
BBC - 10/10 by Nick HilditchIf you are at all interested in the history of cinema, or the influence of 20th century politics on the medium, then this film is a must-see, although over an hour of Soviet propaganda is likely to test the patience of modern viewers.
Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Roger EbertOne of the fundamental landmarks of cinema.
Guardian - 10/10 by Robert HerringThe thing that matters is that Soviet [cinema], while being propagandist, contains a use of all the different branches of film-making which is recognised and practised in no other country.
Empire Magazine - 10/10 by David ParkinsonIf you only ever see one silent film, this is the one it should be. A masterpiece.
London Evening Standard - 10/10 by Derek MalcolmWho needs Avatar in 3D when you can have this?
Salon.com - 10/10 by Andrew O'HehirA work of straightforward emotion and pulse-quickening tension.
Slant Magazine - 10/10 by Jesse CataldoA persistently political work salvaged by its unforgettable grasp of motion.
Turner Classic Movies Online - 10/10 by Sean AxmakerBattleship Potemkin is agitprop, but cinematically magnificent agitprop...
Time Out - 10/10 by Geoff AndrewEdward Tissé's camerawork remains impressive, and there's no doubt that the whole is a technical tour de force, but the obsession with forces of power, as opposed to individual experience, is ultimately oppressive.
