Thank you, love your honest review. One thing that has been bugging me (not having seen the film) is this interview with Coppola in which he states that his inspiration came from reading about the Catiline Conspiracy in ancient Rome, which he claims was a fight between tradition and visions of the future, this simply is not the case whatsoever. The Catiline Conspiracy was primarily a coup attempt involving many established Patricians at a time preceding Rome becoming an Empire, rather than a crumbling Empire in need of Futuristic vision. From watching many reviews it seems Coppola got the Catiline Conspiracy confused with Atlas Shrugged and also has introduced Flubber into the mix. Anyway, loved your review!

I'm OLD enough to remember worrying that Coppola was going to lose his home after he screened the first of many versions of "Apocalypse Now" at the Cannes Film Festival in 1979. I used to live a few blocks from the former American Zoetrope Studios in Hollywood, which he lost after "One From the Heart." He has said for years that he's learned the only way for him to have access to money is to pretend like he already has it. That meant going into debt and occasionally declaring bankruptcy. This time he made the movie he wanted to make -- with his own money. I feel obligated to see it because of Coppola's career, but I'm in no hurry...

Fact: Even the greatest, fails from time to time. Actually, it’s said that’s what defines greatness. The willingness to continue after failure. Over and over again to achieve the goal. It can’t be denied. Coppola was/is genius. At the least, a very talented person who’s been part of some of the best. It sounds to me as if, this one was truly over the top. Oh well. I’m sure he’ll survive it. This is like the fifth review I’ve heard of it. I’m sure I’ll see it somewhere on the net in the next year or two but I am glad I didn’ pay 100 bucks to go out, eat, and theater for this which IS sad considering he is someone who is worthy of it.

Even if this movie gets people talking about its numerous problems and ideas while despising it is an improvement in terms of the brain-dead state of cinema today. Yes, it's a mess. Absolutely.

Why don't you actually go back again? Without seeing the film (it most likely won't be released in the city where I live, sodad...), I sincerely believe it calls for at least a second viewing, if not multiple viewings. What always upsets me is that almost all KZbin reviewers would review a film immediately after they have seen it ONCE, sometimes even as soon as they leave the theatre, at the car park or in their own vehicles. Good films require second or multiple viewings to be accurately and responsibly assessed and critiqued, just like a book, a piece of music or a painting.

Coppola has made four of the greatest movies of all time in succession back in the 1970s: Godfather I & II, The Conversation and Apocalypse Now. One could even argue that his Dracula is a misunderstood masterpiece, Keanu Reeves' performance aside. I think he should be afforded some space to make an ambitious movie that disregard narrative conventions in trying to come up with new ways to express ideas on film: the mixture of the high and low in Megalopolis is the point. Many good movies fail to last longer than a week in our minds, while I expect this film to linger on for years because of its unevenness (akin to the Beatles' White Album). Overall, I think we are beyond good or bad assessments here, just the question of how much debate it can inspire in audiences regarding its ideas. Meanwhile, Coppola has already moved on, beginning to work on his next film project, a musical adaptation of the novel "Glimpses of the Moon".

Act 1: The Time Travelers' Quest The time travelers journey to ancient Troy, where they accidentally turn the Trojan Horse into a giant, flaming, mechanical spider, causing Mercury to crash into Earth. The spider's legs start to dance the Macarena, hypnotizing the Greeks and Trojans, who begin to fight each other with rubber chickens. The time travelers then visit the American Revolutionary War, where they turn the Boston Tea Party into a giant game of "Tea-Party Twister," but with a twist: the tea chests are filled with jelly beans, which start to multiply and cover the entire city. The British and American armies begin to slip and slide on the jelly beans, causing chaos and destruction. Act 2: The WiFi Jammer The time travelers decide to create a WiFi jammer to prevent the next planetary collision. However, they soon realize that they need specific parts from each of the wars they've been trying to prevent. They journey to the Napoleonic Wars, where they obtain a rare crystal needed for the jammer's antenna. However, they accidentally turn Napoleon's army into a giant game of "Simon Says," but with a twist: the soldiers start to turn into chickens, and Napoleon becomes a giant, talking eggplant. The time travelers then visit the American Civil War, where they obtain a crucial microchip needed for the jammer's processor. However, they accidentally turn the Battle of Gettysburg into a giant game of "Capture the Flag," but with a twist: the flags start to come to life and begin to fight each other, causing the entire battlefield to erupt in a giant, swirling vortex of color and sound. Act 3: The Final Confrontation The time travelers finally complete the WiFi jammer, but it fails to prevent the next planetary collision. They journey to the Thirty Years' War, where they obtain a crucial battery needed for the jammer's power source. However, they accidentally turn the war into a giant game of "Red-Light-Green-Light," but with a twist: the soldiers start to turn into giant, walking mushrooms, and the battlefield becomes a giant, psychedelic dreamscape. The time travelers then visit the Hundred Years' War, where they obtain a crucial antenna needed for the jammer's signal. However, they accidentally turn the war into a giant game of "Musical Chairs," but with a twist: the chairs start to disappear, and the soldiers begin to float in mid-air, causing the entire galaxy to implode in a giant, swirling vortex of chaos and destruction. Finally, the time travelers journey to World War I, where they obtain the final part needed for the jammer. However, they accidentally turn the war into a giant game of "Simon Says," but with a twist: the soldiers start to turn into giant, talking clocks, and the battlefield becomes a giant, ticking time bomb, counting down to the destruction of the entire omniverse. Epilogue The time travelers fail to prevent the omniverse from exploding, and every planet, star, and galaxy is destroyed. The time travelers' adventures become a cautionary tale, a reminder of the absurdity and hilarity of their failed mission. The omniverse is reborn, and a new timeline is created. However, the time travelers' legacy lives on, inspiring future generations to try and prevent the next great catastrophe. As the new timeline begins, a giant, talking eggplant appears, saying "The end is just the beginning. The absurdity will continue. The chaos will never end." The eggplant starts to laugh maniacally, and the entire universe erupts in a giant, swirling vortex of color and sound, as the absurdity and hilarity of the time travelers' adventures continue forever.

I saw Megalopolis last night also, I feel the actors were farcical on purpose with their dialogue. Presenting Rome in modern times bares a righteous attitude while being serious with lines from the Stoics. A lot of the story was ham fisted also purposely ... while showing all forms of a visual spectacle is needed. It creates conversation and a need to see it again to pickup on what one had missed from first viewing. From 1 out of 5 ... I agree a 2.5 rating.

Those ideas of Coppola’s have to be developed to the point where they actually make sense within the context of the story and mesh well together. In actuality they just hang there like loose threads.

Theater tickets are expensive. I'd rather spend my money & time on a good movie. Bad movies are for streaming at home.

​@@AlcideIzMine true but you can only decide if a movie is good or bad if you watch it, go on a low price day and see what you think, maybe it's amazing maybe it's horrendous

It's bad and all over the place. It's a mess. Could not possibly recommend this movie l. But ironically for me Lebouff and Plaza gave the best performances.

Aubrey plaza should only do like two types of rolls. And it seems like this is one of them. I don't think she has the acting chops to pull off anything more than two kinds of roles. I just saw her in that new Disney series and she was fucking terrible. Trying to be like a serious / crazy / tough guy /emo goth was horrendous.

No.... no no no. Save yourself! Mega-boring. I think I prefer the idea of Coppola making Dracula as based on the idea in the book Johnny Alucard.

Auntie Wow and Clodio - Most Outrageous Sex Scene - Unofficial AVN Winners! Lol Aubrey and Shia need a spinoff. Yeah, I said it. I want to see whatever movie they were in. Lmao! 🤣🤣🤣 Other than that, and Emmanuel (didn't care for her, sorry), I agreed with what you said. Kudos to you for driving all that way! You got a subscribe from me. 😊

I remember seeing the trailer when it came out and being super confused that you thought it was good. I thought it looked like a B movie from 2006. Which, given the pro-American sentiment that it sounds like is in the movie, is what the movie was supposed to be. This movie should’ve come out 20 years ago and it should’ve starred Keanu Reeves.

It's not really Pro America. Pro humanity as a whole but it definitely doesn't come across as pro American in the full movie.

Agreed, or back in the 80s when he was first going to film it in Rome. It has an 80s vibe and dated elements like the Soviet satellite.

Some reviewers are going soft on this movie only because it's Francis Ford Coppola and an A-list cast. if this was a nobody director the reviews would be way harsher.

Stop letting old dudes write commentary with current vernacular. You are never going to get a Sly savvy well written movie by a dude that's 40 years older than his Target fucking audience. I don't ascribe to the whole you can make great art your whole life. The dude is done he needs to retire. That's the reason he had to sell his shit to make this movie everybody gets it except for Cinema nerds.

Terrible film, a nonsense that is not understood. The actresses are of very low quality and it shows in their acting and since the actor does not understand his role it is not known if the acting is good or bad. Now I understand why the movie studios didn't want to produce it. There is no script and it is the sum of incomprehensible philosophical scenes. Very BAD and a failure at the box office and in critics, even though there are some who rescue something from this disaster, probably some snobbish critic and friend of Coppola?

Last year, Godzilla Minus One was a movie I found so good, that I told everyone about it to see it because I thought it was that good. Megalopolis is that, but in a “you need to know what I just saw, I can’t bear this knowledge alone” kind of way.
