Beautifully filmed and directed for its time. Eisenstein knew what he was doing. Propaganda at its best. You can only imagine the influence of such a wellmade piece at the time, in the post-revolution years. Good (silent era)acting, experimental and revolutionary in terms of camerawork, editing and scenery. A silent masterpiece.

That finale had me on the literal edge of my seat! Exciting stuff!

This film is considered as one of the best film according to authorities. It is ordered by Lenin to young(27) director Eisenstein.
The most interesting thing i noticed about this film is that the acting is very natural, not like the other silent films with exaggerated acting.
