Critics consensus

“A remarkable technical achievement, Metropolis ' eye-popping visuals more than compensate for its relatively routine story.”

we see the director's towering world of tomorrow being erected on the foundations of yesterday's cultural influence... a dizzying postmodern edifice, more impressive for its shimmering Steampunk architecture than for the dramas accommodated within

RTAV ClubJul 19, 2010

A fairly standard genre exercise, packed with light, detail, color, noise, and motion that add up to relatively little.

Tale of the struggle for personal freedom in a futuristic, tyrannical society is light on action by contempo standards, and pic's look is uninteresting, apart from occasionally bizarre backgrounds.

The storyline is semi-snoozy but the visuals are tremendous.
