No shade, I think people should be paid what they’re worth, but we need to talk about the fact that most of these budgets are going to A-list. A $300M movie is not paying their art dept, accountants, or PAs any more per day than a 15M movie
The thing about this movie is it didn’t explain anything. Why there’s a civil war, who the characters actually are, how the president seized power, how much support does the government have, what does the rest of the world think. It just makes me uninterested and detached from the world that the writers failed to build. That being said I think it was shot pretty well but ultimately I felt nothing watching the movie. Not a good feeling or a bad feeling just nothing.

The shit with the moon guy killing the girls was the most fucked shit I’ve seen in the movie and the ending felt very real like that shit isn’t scary it’s just surreal. We both got the same experience with this movie I consume too much media but I never try and make something of my own when that is what I aspire to be in my future, I like to create but I never in my life write it down or feel at all like going ahead with it and just do nothing about it. That’s why the ending really affected me in deep ass way.
The horror of the movie is its restraint. None of the deaths hapen on camera. None, its all left to the imagination, and oh boy, those are things you don't want to imagine.
Perhaps after spending many years on the screenplay, Coppola fell into analysis paralysis, resulting in a chaotic and uninspired final product. What we ended up with was a tedious, disjointed mess. I was falling asleep by the middle of it. I didn't care for any of the characters.
People want a fairytale, even dark one. They want to see unreal things like mental health patient rises to a people leader, to a strong man. Nobody wants to see a movie about a broken man
I'm sorrry but who TF thinks the Godfather.....is somehow the BEST ....the very BESTEST movie EVER EVER made?!? That's usual circle jerk of Hollywood and all its surrounding jobs that depend on it mmmk not actual as unbiased as possible FACT. Just NOPE no!!! It's a good movie sure. Awesome? Meh. Riveting? Meh. Sure for its TIME in the 70s it was "groundbreaking" blah blah but even 10yrs on it seemed dated to me. Just np it's not some massive profound movie. We saw from like 10 other gangster movies that they aren't hard to make and can be fascinating but
The back to back music videos are actually a pretty important part of the film. The film is kinda supposed to be like a big pink opaque episode and in the beginning of the film maddie mentions how theirs two different bands that play each episode so thats why we get those two music moments. Maddie even mentions how the bands play at the double lunch and that was where they were when sloppy jane and the other band played.
Every Marvel fan needs to check out the films of Jeff Nichols--no spandex, no explosions, just compelling stories, driven by compelling characters. Theyre quiet, though, and movie bros raised on raw, vapid sensation may not know how to process something that isn't shouting at them for two hours.
Sometimes a movie has a really deep premise and fails because it can't execute it, but I don't even understand what Copola thought was profound about the idea behind the movie. It's about a genius scientist who clashes with political powers that be in a modern society that's kind of an allegory for Rome. It's not bad, but this is a passion project of forty years?
Francis Ford Coppola definitely fell off years ago, his last critical and commercial success was Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), that was it. From being known for classic masterpieces to now being known for making flop after flop.
Damn people are getting defensive about this movie in the comments. If you wanna see a better monster movie from the 21st century, watch Peter Jackson's King Kong (2005), far better than any Monsterverse movie. And you know what else Peter's Kong has??? Human characters that are actually well!! written!!
I'm not trans, but I had a legitimate existential crisis after I watched this movie. It violently confronted me with everything I have been holding inside, and brought my deepest fears to life with a character I truly felt I can relate to on so many levels. This was a horror movie for me, and I love it. I can truly say it's the scariest movie I've seen, and I can't stop going back to watch it.
35:33 My friend David introduced me into this movie. Saying that the most most horrific thing about the holocaust weren’t the atrocities, but the ideas of these atrocities were thought of in something as simplistic as a meeting. Made me look at the holocaust and meetings in a completely different way 😳
My Top 8 (could watch these movies over and over again because they rank as my fav). 8. Scarface (brings back memories of the 80s) 7. 12 :01 (A time warp movie that always made me laugh, couldn't stop watching it!) 6. Train to Busan (Korean Zombie Movie) 5. Passengers 4. The 10 Commandments with Charlton Heston. 3. Star Wars (Only The Prequel Trilogy) 2. Stargate 1. Coming to America (The First movie, 1988, my all time favorite movie)
If this is what "anti woke" movies are supposed to look like, sheesh, pull the plug on that right now. I'd rather a race-swapped character than whatever this mess was supposed to be.
Saw this movie in Burbank CA (basically Hollywood) with a nearly full crowd who were all in on the joke (outside a few people), it was an incredible theater experience. Entire audience kept bursting out laughing at countless parts of the movie. I honestly loved it. Treat it as The Room and it's one of the best movies ever made.
it really is painful to realize that this movie is horrible within the first 10 minutes of its runtime. when the opening credits show a chiseled stone title, "Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis, a Fable", everything past that point the cognitive dissonance starts to sink in. such a disappointment. The closest comparison might be Martin Scorsese's Gangs of New York, which had similar problems, but was still an interesting movie. I regret watching Megalopolis. The only positive thing that I can say about it is that Coppola made the film the way he wanted to make. He's 85 years old, and was able to mark this off his bucket list. Good for him, bad for us.
Oh man. Same. Seeing Megalopolis made me retroactively hate all movies. It made me sick to my stomach to think about ever watching a movie again. I don't think I've ever expeerienced that before.
You haven't seen enough movies if you think this was the worst movie you have ever seen. Is it worse than Birdemic? Worse than an Asylum knockoff? Worse than crappy softcore erotic thrillers from Skinemax? Does it have NO artistic value at all? Not even for provoking conversation? Not even for the intentionally camp and fun moments? Film RU-vidrs once again are taking the discourse into the gutter of "WORST THING EVER!". And following that up with: "I didn't like it so therefore no one can." That is both contemptible and insulting at the same time. Just because you didn't vibe with it, doesn't mean other people won't. Megalopolis has a lot of issues for sure, but I enjoyed the movie. Don't tell me that I can't like it or that I am somehow lying to myself and others if I do like it. This isn't about the movie at all. This is about the self-inflating narcissism of failed film students who now live on RU-vid only ever talking in unnuanced binary statements, and joining in on viral pile ons for the clicks. That is anti-intellectual, anti-art and anti-criticism.
