Rated 8.0/10 on IMDb. 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Metacritic 97. Directed by Sergei Eisenstein. One of the most influential films ever made. Odessa, 1905. The crew of the Russian battleship Potemkin rises up against their tsarist officers — and their revolt ignites a mass demonstration on the Odessa Steps that explodes into one of the most famous sequences in cinema history. Eisenstein's revolutionary use of montage editing transformed the language of film and inspired generations of filmmakers from Coppola to De Palma. A silent masterpiece. With English subtitles.
