San Francisco Chronicle -
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.

Chicago Sun-Times -
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.

Trashy and glorious, the restored Metropolis is a pop epic for the ages.
