See more 08/04/2022 The greatest 01 hour: and 13 minutes ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more Ethan S 02/23/2021 Excellent cinematography frames a story with pathos and surprising humor. A lesser effort than Potemkin, perhaps, but a key piece of early cinema from Sergei Eisenstein. See more William L 01/28/2021 "They're tempting us with Vodka. Don't take the bait." Strike, like much of Eisenstein's work, derives some of its best moments from its groundbreaking editing techniques, interpersing narrative footage with thematic parallels, such as the slaughtered cattle and spilled ink on a map, simulating blood. But what about that photo album scene, in which a collection of images of strike leaders is being reviewed by authorities, only for the subjects to come alive as the scene switches to a carefully constructed live-action rendition of the page? That gets almost no recognition! Visually creative but narratively unsurprising as a piece of early Communist propaganda, Eisenstein's innovations behind the camera and in the cutting room clearly carry the film, and are the main drivers behind Strike's modern reputation. (4/5) See more 06/12/2020 best cinema person. Im falling love with einseinstein's cinema style. See more 04/03/2020 An impactful classic by Sergei Eisenstein. See more Read all reviews
