Such a frustrating disappointment

Absolutely brilliant

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Who knew comedy could be portrayed so damn beautifully? City Lights is made with such a heart of gold that it's hard not to smile throughout its entirety. Just the mannerisms and little individual components each character posses are so so genius and amusing. I didn't necessarily fall head over heals for City Lights, but I certainly appreciated the craftsmanship shown throughout the piece. There's just something oddly charming about Chaplin that I can't quite put my finger on... (Verdict: A-)

The story of how a generous Tramp tries to help a blind girl for whom he's in love is famous since its release. Its probably one of the most acclaimed and famous films of Chaplin's career, who was already an accomplished actor when he made this silent film, released in the midst of sound era, in a conscious choice of Chaplin, which saw many successful silent film humorists sink when they began to talk and decided not to have the same fate. For us, its one of the most remarkable films of Little Bum, the most iconic character of this actor.Visually beautiful and elegant, it has a careful cinematography and music, as well as sound effects, dispenses well any vocal addition. Scenarios and costumes were carefully thought out and created. In all the technical details Chaplin's taste and meticulous hand is visible. The comedy is created through the most unlikely situations in which the character stands, and it is delicious. Even if it fails to tease out laughs it will certainly make the audience smile. There is also a naive and pure love story that permeates the entire film, as a thread of history, and that is deeply touching.

You're probably deciding to watch this because it's in the Top 250 movies of all time. Let me tell you that it totally deserves its spot at #25 for Top Rated English Movies. I'm not a huge fan of Charlie Chaplin or silent movies in general, but this one surprised me. It was funny, but yet had a serious tone at the same time. My only wish is that the ending would've had more to it. It wasn't a bad ending by any means, I think it's just me wanting to see more since the movie was so good. Just do yourself a favor and watch it already!

This is one of my best Top 20 Film ever !!! It is not possible for me to describe this film.Everyone should know how many times he filmed some scenes.Charly Chaplin has invested so much time making this film.Nowadays it is almost impossible to make such a magnificent film
