It really comes across as dated to me. In general, Bergman films don't quite involve me emotionally or "move" me, especially Seventh Seal. I can respect and "study" aspects of his film-making, but I don't ever recall being moved to tears or smile.
I also just watched Fellini's "La Strada." Here is a very simple film from similar era, yet it moved me and had a lasting emotional imprint. It wasn't too boring, either :)
