My Review on Modern times

    Modern times was such a great film for many reasons. First off, it was able to communicate many messages and make the viewers laugh, both at the same time. Chaplin expressed his thoughts on the work place, on how to handle a bad sitution, love, and the future. In addition, this film made many people feel better about the situation they were in. What Chaplin did best was make people laugh, therefore the point of this film was to make people laugh and teach them that they must smile no matter how bad the situation was. Chaplin knew that his audience was going through a rough time, which inspired a happy endig to his movie. It was also a grat movie because the audience was able to relate to what was going in the film, for example, the strikes, unemployment, and the over-working. People were able to feel a connection with the film and at the same time have a laugh and learn how to look at the situation in a positive manner.
