COPOLLA DID A KILO OF COCAINE AND WROTE THE SCRIPT IN ONE NIGHT!
At least that's the only this would've happened..
3 stars just out of the sheer respect for the fucking man! The dude created literal modern classics and few of the greatest movies ever made!! Period.
Now Megalopolis.. I like the overall visuals, Rome/historical narrative at times too forced but understandable, narrative somewhat cohesive and relatively understandable but barely interesting and engaging, acting kind of flat for the most part except maybe Gustavo(but you can call him Gus), characters pretty omni-dimensional and tad predictable.
The only thing worthy of praise, at least for me, not sure you people might've hated it I guess idk, was the strong irony, satire and critique of the western, self-centered, modern, ultra consumeristic/capitalistic culture.. or lack there of.. Beautiful!
