The Kaiser, the Beast of Berlin (1918)
100%
“The title role is played by Rupert Julian, who also directed the picture. The likeness to the Kaiser is remarkable, and Mr. Julian has undoubtedly done what he set out to do -- rob the Kaiser of his terrors.” –

The Miracle (1912)
85%
“It is a combination of grand opera and mediaeval miracle play shown in... motion pictures. If such a hybrid promises to reproduce the best qualities of both parents it may also be expected to display some of the faults to which the flesh of each is heir.” –

The Fall of a Nation (1916)
43%
“It is so trivial that seven dozen pictures like it would not send a single patriotic thrill down the spine nor accelerate one's pulse beats by so much ha a semi-quaver. A film, like a play, needs something more than an American flag to make it thrilling.” –

“The cave scenes and all the battle scenes between the pirate crew and the Englishmen who headed the expedition in search of the buried gold were done with a realism which sent chills down the spine and gasps through the dark. ened theater.” –

86%
“[Lillian Gish] remains invisible and leaves the spotlight to sister Dorothy, whose acting captivates the filmgoer. But absent though she is from the screen, Lillian's directing hand is seen throughout the picture.” –

Neptune's Daughter (1914)
95%
“Neptune's Daughter demonstrates a fact which has been too much overlooked by motion picture producers, namely, that one of the greatest appeals of the films is found in their power to show effects utterly impossible on the stage.” –

The Life of General Villa (1914)
80%
“True, there are no close-up views of a man ramming a bayonet down another man's throat, such as one sees in the fiction war pictures, but there are scenes showing real fighting as It la done now. The films are an important achievement.” –

The Passion Play of Oberammergau (1900)
“[The film doesn't] even approach a close imitation of the Oberammergau play... [but] these pictures have their own excellencies, and they are quite capable of standing on their own bottom, and should be allowed to do so.” –

“On the whole, the narrative is too full of incident. At times it is bewildering in its rapidity, not only in the twinkling movements of the actors, but also in the kaleidoscope succession and evanescence of the scenes.” –
