It is impossible to accurately rate this film due to its historical importance, dated nature, revolutionary techniques, and propagandistic nature.

Massively and tremendously overrated by most. First of all, let me say that the battleship scenes are very dull and boring. That section alone brings down the score a couple notches. However, it revives itself and it starts to develop into a masterpiece. Right with you think it will...bam! There's the next (dry and slow) quarter of the film. In other words...it's bad. Still well shot, edited and respectable old Soviet Union propoganda from Eisenstein.

This is, as Yon Barna says in his biography, when Eisenstein becomes Eisenstein. While his first film Strike exhibits a clever foundation of montage, it was this film that really keeps your emotions on a leash for the whole ride.

Just watch the Odessa scenes and then wonder why everyone calls this film boring.

You're telling me Kung Pow: Enter the Fist was making a silent film reference with the baby? I'm only two movies into my free trial of the criterion channel and I'm learning so much! Admittedly I kinda tapped out after the Odessa steps but there was a lot to enjoy here visually and the final shot felt like a triumph. Surprisingly effective.
