After the success of Strike (1924), Sergei Eisenstein was commissioned by the Soviet government to make a film commemorating the uprising of 1905.

The movie revolves around an uprising on board the Battleship Potemkin (Bronenosets Potyomkin) in 1905. Conditions on the ship are unbearable, which in turn incites revolutionary fervor among the sailors, most notably within the character of Vakulinchik.

Film Journal (41 movies items)

"Re-watch Personally, I've always found this film rather boring, and upon re-watch my opinion has been tempered only slightly; but I've still always found it a technical marvel and, upon re-watching it, have found its technical brilliance even greater; I am convinced it has the most artistically advanced and the greatest editing in cinema history. But it's really only average in its aesthetic value."
