Tyler G Holds up pretty well for a Silent Era film. The gags are charming and occasionally funny. An enjoyable, decent film. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/22/24 Full Review Nick M Another fantastic Chaplin picture. It's so nice to see him making pictures in his own time rather than having to rush them out at a contracted clip. This is his first film under a new $1 million contract with First National that merely specifies 8 films, but no time frame. The camera work is as vibrant and alive as the film itself. There were hardly any of the old gags at all in this. Rather, much of the comedy emerged organically from the story. Even though it is still very much a comedy, Chaplin wrote in just enough pathos that I felt invested in the lives of the three main characters, and was rewarded at the end by finding them all living out a happy ending together.
