Battleship Potemkin

While propaganda films usually don't contain the same level of artistic quality as other pieces of art, Battleship Potemkin is an exception to the rule. This movie has a wealth of clever shots and scenes that are able to expertly illustrate the conflicts between the rebels and their suppresors. Combine this with a surprisingly extensive number of shots aboard a real battleship, as well as other landmarks, and you get a film that is actually quite fun to watch. I usually don't review silent films as a rule, and I will not explain my reasoning for this right now, but I decided to make an exception for this film as it was simply too iconic and good to not review. Not exactly something I'd recommend to a friend, but an interesting movie that has a lot of cool moments.
