The film as a whole means no more than Charlie Chaplin means. Nobody has ever been able to say what that is, but by the present showing it is something quite timeless and priceless, and more human than the best of alien words lugged in for definition.

The Nation
The opening sequence in Chaplin's second Depression masterpiece, of the Tramp on the assembly line, is possibly his greatest slapstick encounter with the 20th century.

Chicago Reader
The picture is grand fun and sound entertainment, though silent. It's the old Chaplin at his best, looking at his best -- young, pathetic and a very funny guy.

Rating: A- --
Chaplin's hilarious comedy still is one of the most poignant critiques of modernization and mechanization of mass production.

One of the many remarkable things about Charlie Chaplin is that his films continue to hold up, to attract and delight audiences.

Chicago Sun-Times
Chaplin's political and philosophical naivety now seems as remarkable as his gift for pantomime.

Time Out
Chaplin's humorousness, so full of suggestions, is stronger than time itself. [Full Review in Spanish]

Product Description:
Charlie Chaplin bid farewell to silent comedy with this funny and poignant masterpiece. Here Chaplin stars as a factory worker fed-up with the job and his tyrannical boss (who keeps an eye on all his employees via a big-brother TV monitor). When he meets and falls in love with an orphaned street waif, the two dream of a nice suburban existence...but the cops are never far behind, chasing the vagabond couple.
