Viewers are captivated by 'The Great Dictator,' praising its seamless transition to sound film and the blend of humor with poignant, critical commentary on fascism and racism. The film's audacity, vision, and Chaplin's performance are highlighted, particularly the powerful final speech that resonates as a timeless call for peace and tolerance. While some find it less appealing compared to modern satires, its influence on cinema and its blend of comedy with serious themes are widely appreciated.

👍 Powerful final speech on peace and tolerance.
