Right from the start, there were some amazing jokes. I laughed a lot and I found it impressive to see a 100 year old movie with so many crazy stunts. I would give it 4 stars but I thought there were a few too many slow paced moments (not sure if that's the right term, I was also a bit sleepy) between the great jokes.

I wasn't expecting that a 1923 movie could let me so apprehensive, it almost made me jump off of my chair. What an exciting movie, specially by the third act. Not just that, but also is a very funny movie, it was a really great surprise!

If "the boy" had more exposure, we would have remembered the silent era as Lloyd's era instead of Chaplin's, or at least theirs. Oh, if you pay attention, you could realize the building in the background changed a few times the higher he climbed.

My first Harold Lloyd picture–he strikes me as a much more relatable star than Chaplin or Keaton, but the humor here wasn’t nearly as funny as the Chaplin/Keaton I’ve seen. Indeed, the first half of this movie felt fairly rote. Standard silent gags, with nothing much to distinguish it. The second half of the movie, though, involving the climb up the side of the building certainly does live up to its classic billing.

Pretty standard silent comedy from Harold Lloyd, with a timeless, unforgettable third act. The setup is basic enough; it's the well-worn yarn of an ambitious young go-getter who moves to the city and finds that getting rich quick isn't quite as easy as he'd expected. He puts on an act fo More
