WOW!!!
This is a very interesting item. I'm a great fan of the movie, and have tried to get through the book, without success. This was a great way to hear the missing 10 reels of the movie. Don't expect award winning acting , but still VERY well done.

Metropolis Audiobook: Needs Metropolitan Touch
I had high hopes for this audio version of "Metropolis." It was billed as having gone "back to the original novel" which intrigued me. I was so excited that I popped the first tape into my cassette player only moments after it had been delivered! Sadly, the acting was very poor and quickly became a major distraction.

This review is from: Metropolis (Audio Cassette)
I had high hopes for this audio version of "Metropolis." It was billed as having gone "back to the original novel" which intrigued me. I was so excited that I popped the first tape into my cassette player only moments after it had been delivered! Sadly, the acting was very poor and quickly became a major distraction.It was as though the actors hadn't seen the script until the moment they sat to record it. They sounded unrehearsed and unnatural from start to finish, and their use of inflection and emotion was so inexcusably off-the-mark that it was difficult to follow Von Harbou's story! The lead actor read as though each line were the climax of the entire story, for example, which made things very confusing. One more strike against this version is that the story doesn't even begin until the first side of the tape is nearly over...it is preceded by a long and confusing spoken introduction, and a long, grating, synthesized musical prelude. I highly recommend the book or film over this audio version.
