San Francisco Chronicle - Mick LaSalle
Seeing it is a time-bending experience, a way of visiting the past and glimpsing the past's idea of the future. A masterpiece of art direction, the movie has influenced our vision of the future ever since, with its imposing white monoliths and starched facades.

You've seen the rest; now see the best.

An awesome cinema spectacle.

Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
Does what many great films do, creating a time, place and characters so striking that they become part of our arsenal of images for imagining the world.

Chicago Tribune - Michael Wilmington
Trashy and glorious, the restored Metropolis is a pop epic for the ages.
