Hard to watch,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Metropolis/Things to Come (DVD)
Isn't the cover art fantastic. "Metropolis" is just one of those films you have to watch, it is hard to watch, because it is black and white, the film has deteriorated and as it is silent the sub titles are in German and it has that really bad silent movie music. However Metropolis was a film with so much sophistication for its time and was responsible for launching the technohorror genre."Things To Come" is hard to watch because in some ways it might have happened. I found it not scary, but uncomfortable to watch, maybe because humanity is always on the edge of falling apart. You may think I'm giving both a bad review, but on the contrary I think both films are excellent and deserve a watch every now and then.

Terrible prints,
By Howie - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Metropolis/Things to Come (DVD)
The 1 star is solely for the abysmal quality of the prints and disk. The films are true cinema classics that deserve much better treatment.You know you're in for a rough ride when the distributor appologizes and makes excuses for the prints before the films begin! The prints for both of these are very poor quality with video that "breaths" and "pulses". Contrast is so poor that several scenes are nothing but a black screen. Making out objects in dark scenes is virtually impossible. All the title cards are "stills" that have been reinserted into the prints. They are the best looking parts! BOTH copies (original and replacement) I received were unplayable on several players. Both went back. I did not bother getting a replacement on the 2nd bad one as I had seen enough from both copies to decide it is better to pay more and get one of the remastered versions that are available. If all you are wanting to do is screen the films (my original goal) to determine if you want to pay for better copies this might be acceptable. Even then, both films are available in other multi-film packages that offer better value although I'm sure the audio/video quality will be about the same. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful

TTC - I am very confused,
By Wayne Osborne "RippFan" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Metropolis/Things to Come (DVD)
I want to purchase the `Things To Come' DVD. Amazon offers 4 versions (Colorized, Rental, 2/27/2001 version, and Metropolis / Things To Come). The reviews for these items are all over the place and in some cases repeated, verbatim, for different versions. I am confused = which version is of the best quality????

What can be said?,
By Your mom "Your mom" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Metropolis/Things to Come (DVD)
It's the fritz lang classic Metropolis. There is not much to be said, except it is a great movie to watch and listen to your favorite music at the same time.
