Movie Review of Modern Times


Modern Times in review was a sensational movie in its own part; Chaplin the director is able to take many twists and turns to get a broad perspective of the “Modern Times” and give it a light to the viewers who watch the movie. Chaplin is able to show how tough present times are one in the same with modern futuristic times. Chaplin is able to go in depth and give detail on how harsh the factory life, as well as every day life can be. The movie is able to capture and take its course to have an overview of how everyday life really is and does not sugarcoat one bit of it. The director is able to show how crazy a factory worker can get when working in the same factory for too long, and how tough real life can be when there is no work, and how one must survive out in the real world. Chaplin is able to mix comedy with realism and give the viewers a sense of humor, while also giving them a sense of the real world. The theme that I took from this such film was that no matter how hard one thinks life is, another hardship will take its place and make life even harder, but at the end of it all, one must keep on smiling and move one, in the end the light will come sooner rather than later.

  1. I like when you say that Chaplin would "mix comedy with realism." That is exactly what he did. Glad you caught Chaplin's important message. Well done!
