Review by hillglass

The first time I saw this movie was in the theater for the first hour and I had to go. Then I had to wait a considerable amount of time. When I finally got to sit down and watch it, I had that feeling one gets when they remember a dream that you had the night before- a scarry dream that you want to remember but it still scares you. I have watched it 4 or 5 times since then with people that have never seen it before. the usual reaction is "it's weird". It Certainly is! and the best example I can find. I am sure this is how the audience that watched Metropolis felt when it was first released. I am no sissy but this movie scares me on so many levels, yet I am compelled to watch it every 5 years or so. There is so much to think about, and it twists your emotions so much that you will be still thinking about it days later. I have learned this is not for everyone- Oh Well.
