The dystopian masterpiece sci-fi epic "Metropolis", is an allegory of a future where an exploited underclass live and works in subterranean halls as slaves to support a small, pampered elite living in palatial skyscrapers.This future is becoming a reality. As we are starting to live in a dystopian authoritarian society due to the Chinese Corona Virus this movie is prophetic and a warning. In this day and age, the ultimate goal of the elite is to create a global government that controls the world’s resources while keeping the masses subdued and monitored through police-state tactics. The “solutions” to the current virus crisis represent big steps in that direction." (https://vigilantcitizen.com)

Haunting and Mystical, a masterpiece, Metropolis is a 1927 German expressionist epic science-fiction drama film directed by Fritz Lang. It is considered a pioneering work of the science-fiction genre in movies, being among the first feature-length movies of the genre.
Frietz Lang, the visionary German film-maker, worked for over a year on his most expensive movie, the dystopian sci-fi epic Metropolis, only to see it exhibited around the world in shortened, differently edited versions. Despite the spectacular sets and the dazzling special effects, its allegory of a future where an exploited underclass works in subterranean machine halls to support a small, pampered aristocracy living in palatial skyscrapers, received a mixed reception. The general public was puzzled, the critics, among them HG Wells, often scornful.
But Metropolis – shown by film societies to excited cinephiles in faded, incomplete copies, and its familiar stills reproduced in books – went on to become one of the landmarks of world cinema, among the last of the silent classics. It influenced generations of film-makers providing iconic images of oppression and liberation. Restoring the picture to its original 150 minutes became the holy grail of film archivists.

Then in 2008 a version, probably struck from the German original, was discovered in Buenos Aires, virtually complete though frayed and damaged. It had long been in the hands of a collector who respected Lang’s work. The additional 25 minutes elucidated much that was obscure in other prints. Moreover, we find it easier than earlier audiences and critics to accept the mixture of expressionism, melodrama and German romanticism, to go along with the abrupt switches in style and to accept the apparent conflict of ideological positions. Over 60 years ago Siegfried Kracauer wrote in From Caligari to Hitler: “Metropolis was rich in subterranean content that, like contraband, had crossed the borders of consciousness without being questioned.” It should be in everyone’s film library.
