For those of you are who are younger - This movie will be trashed publicly for the next few weeks, forgotten, revived on the underground film circuit - become a cult classic that everyone pretended they always liked, then in about 20 years it will be re-made by another director to critical acclaim and box office indifference. Moral of the story: watch it yourselves and see if you like it: screw everyone else.

I remember a Twilight Zone episode that was like this, the remake episodes from the 90s. Where a guy had this thing, and when he would say Shut up, time would stop and when he said Keep on talking, time started again. The episode ended where a missile stopped just above his city and he couldn't say Keep on talking, anymore, or it would blow it up.

Stunning, stylish, and masterfully told modern day fable set in a dystopian "New Rome". Love, Greed, and the Human Spirit are celebrated, criticized, and imagined in this breathtaking film by visionary Francis Ford Coppola. Adam Driver at his finest and a stunning character performance by Audrey Plaza. If you enjoyed movies like The Fountain and The Great Gatsby, you will love this!

Because this is genuinely a bad movie. The trailer is a million times more promising than watching the movie itself. I have never ever not urged anyone to see a movie, as most movies will at least teach you something. This movie will teach you how not to make a movie. It's an utter failure in every sense of the word, except perhaps cinematography, set decoration, editing and music. Everything else is utterly abyssmal.

[@will.roman-ros]

Better to have art that is thought-provoking, than not. Back when, Dante Alighieri wrote the Divine Comedy, now we have movies like the Matrix, movies that show us the horrors of war, movies like Idiocracy, and musical artists like Rage Against the Machine and the Gorillaz. Art totally has a place in shaping culture, but ppl still have to hold themselves accountable. We conduct all this science, develop technology, but the most productive science has not been done: social engineering + new economics. We have not yet found a way to reward self-sufficiency. Right now, our consumerist economy will not allow it. Until we find that better way, we will be stuck in competition instead of embracing cooperation. At least the internet makes much info available. You can always be a smart consumer, and don't watch it. Don't enrich the ppl you don't want to. That's why I don't watch Marvel movies: I hate seeing so many millions go down the drain for that "art", but art is subjective, and some ppl will like it. Some movies flop. For every successful movie, there are hundreds of thousands of artists just doing their thing, and in some cases, virtually no one buys their art. But without art, where would we be? Think of a world without architecture, every structure would be samey and utilitarian. Architecture is hardly directly political, yet it attracts ppl to grow communities. I was just in Caorle, Italy: it looks like paradise. The large stones on the shore could've been utilitarian, but since sculptors made them beautiful, ppl there spend more time outside and pursue their romantic interests by the shore. Art shapes our lives in many ways. Ppl can be depressed, but be uplifted by music and comedy. It is very important. Comedy oft tells us all that is wrong, and makes us laugh at our own collective cognitive dissonance. The fact we need to eat and mate means we all have impulses that need satisfying for survival. Art is an impulse to make things extraordinary, but ppl have different ideas about what is extraordinary. Ppl have different ideas of what it means to be successful and happy.

[@lord-yaoi]

Somehow, that's true. The power to create is in us. We claim back the power to create. Besides, a movie like this is timeless, that's why it took so long to be made. But notice the moment to be released in human consciousness. I can't wait to watch this being remade in 40 years. This

The critics and nay-sayers are straight-buggin' here. I watched this movie last night after much deliberation. Needless to say, I was enthralled throughout. The majority of complaints claim this movie is incoherent and pretentious trash. Whilst there are abstract elements to it, the narrative is straightforward; not difficult to grasp at all. As far as it being "pretentious," well, most people that try to enjoy that which is within the artistic domain purely for the sake of entertainment will deem anything challenging (in any manner) as pretentious. Personally, I applaud this film for having equal parts style and substance. I am grateful to have seen it in IMAX, and will certainly purchase on bluray.
