''A masterpiece of visionary silent cinema..... one of the strangest, most fascinating films ever made, a futuristic nightmare that is both sublime in its grandeur and remarkably intimate in its emotions. Just about every science-fiction movie you can think of pays tribute to its influence, but to date none has matched its strangeness or its prophetic power.''
''The greatest of all pulp fantasies! Lang’s profligate hallucination of a future city is a movie whose every detail is subsumed to the overall effect.''
''The plutonium template for sci-fi moviemaking... Remains one of the most inspirational and influential movies of any genre.''
