Not a whole lot to say about this one other than if you're any kind of a fan of Metropolis, you must have this in your collection. I have a copy which is a 'direct from print' copy on a DVD and there was no work done to clean it up and it doesn't have the half hour of missing footage, so this makes it a rare treat to have.

This 1927 silent sci-fi classic inspired many other classic science fiction movies, including Blade Runner and Star Wars. This re-mastered restoration includes most of the lost footage and even the original 1927 score. Best restoration to date. Way ahead of its time, this classic film is a must have.
This review is from The Complete Metropolis [Limited Edition] [1927]

Gray filter

A wonderful movie, but there seems to be a problem with the production of the discs. This happened on a recent movie disc I bought as well, where there is a gray filter over the entirety of the film, so the blacks aren’t truly black. This is especially important with this movie, as it is filmed in black and white and the gray filter destroys the detail. Other than that, the shipping and handling was great. Came on time.

This sci-fi classic is the originator that has spawned entire subcultures from many classic science fiction movies to steampunk. A must own for anyone, not just sci-fi fans! This is also the most complete version of the film I've ever seen and I'm so happy to own it!

May be hard for some to watch a silent film but this sci fi classic still stands up. You can see this is as inspiration for so many films that came after. Was edited for the USA and finally the full film was been restored.

This film is incredible and was way ahead of its time. Fritz Lang was a genuis and a master filmmaker. So many movies today are inspired by this
