  • "Comédie burlesque. Charlot vaguant vers les États-Unis sur un bateau d'immigrants pauvres, y rencontre une jolie fille. Débarqué à New York et malgré qu'il soit en chômage, il la rencontre à nouveau et l'invite à dîner grâce à une pièce de monnaie contrefaite. Bande sonore musicale."
  • "One of the top Chaplin comedies of the Mutual period, with Edna and her mother as steerage passengers en route to America. Charlie befriends the girl in an incident aboard ship and later ashore in one of the funniest restuarant sequences ever filmed."
  • "A penniless immigrant (Charlie Chaplin) befriends a girl (Edna Purviance) on the boat and later helps her in a café. This film was voted one of the greatest 100 motion pictures of all times."@en
  • "Charlie befriends a beautiful girl on board a passenger ship to America. Once ashore they become involved in Charlie's usual escapades. In New York, Charlie spends his last coin on a meal for the young woman he has befriended aboard ship. The coin turns out to be counterfeit resulting in an episode that has hilarious consequences for all concerned. This somewhat autobiographical film was censored in later versions, the most commonly deleted scene is the sequence where the immigrants in third class are herded like cattle in steerage, as they pass the Statue of Liberty. Chaplin's experiences as a young man living in London's slums gave him a vision of the world of the underpriveleged that he would later romanticize and transform into comedy in the many films featuring his alter ego "The Little Tramp"."@en
