Chaplin is significantly less funny (and believable) than Looney Toons.

Credit to him for satirizing dictatorships so accurately, but the plot/script still leaves much to be desired. Plus while the movie is funny at times, it pales in comparison to the Marx Brothers.

With this brilliant film (his masterwork along with "Modern Times"), Chaplin kicks the Hell outta Hitler. Side-splitting, moving, wise but, most important of all, timeless.

Moving, hilarious, brilliant, revolutionary and, most important of all, timely. Important forever. A true classic by the great Charlie Chaplin, who, with this creation, provided an articulate message in the heist and paranoia of World War II.

This is definitely a great film, just not the class that typify his earlier films, especially the short ones I've seen. Still Chaplin himself is at his very best, in spite of the aging. Also the script is good and all, just gets way too heroic and Hollywood-sickening in the end. It'll always be great fun, though, and will never be "too old", so one can watch it without being afraid of too much boredom. All in all, he makes the cut going from silence era to sound, no doubt.

This is my first Chaplin film and what a way to start off. Anyone who says that slapstick comedy can't have a relevant and biting political message that is crucially important needs to watch this. Admittedly I felt a bit guilty laughing at some of these jokes but as Mel Brooks said the best way to insult Hilter is to effectively dance on his grave by making fun of him.

Hasn't aged well. Bad pacing, most of the jokes are terrible and the ending speech makes no sense in the context of the film. The character that barely can string 2 words together suddenly says the most coherent, meaningful, and poignant thing in the entire film and all this off the top of his head while speaking to the entire world? Just seemed to scripted and way too fake. Maybe Bukowski was right about Chaplin..

Does that embarrassing thing when it thinks it's being hilarious, when it's actually not very funny at all. This is a real bore; it'd be better just to watch Duck Soup, which has better political satire and is eons funnier.

Personally, I just didn't think much of it at all. Other Chaplin pictures humor has held up with ease but it was definitely out of date here. Dull and pointless parts were distracting me quite a bit also.
