Megalopolis review

The film premiered at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival to some very divisive reactions. Our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Megalopolis review gave it two stars. 

Reviewer Anna Smith writes: "Lofty ideas and meta references to Coppola suggest that this is a personal ode to his art, and given that the writer/director has worked on 🥂it for some 40 years, it’s clearly a passion project. But it is hard to share his reverence for his narrative when the dialogue is mannered to the point of distraction, and each performance seems to come from a different movie."

ꦗCurrently, the film's sꩲcore sits at 50%, with reviews ranging from one star to five stars. 

. "I wasn’t really working on this screenplay for 40 years as I often see written, but rather I was collecting notes and clippings for a scrapbook of things I found interesting for some future screenplay, or examples of political cartoons or different historical subjects," he said 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:when debuting the first image.

"Ultimately, after a lot of time, I settled on the idea of a Roman epic. And then later, a Roman epic set in modern America, so I really only began writing this script, on and off, in the last dozen years or so. Also, as I have made many films of many different subjects and in many different styles, I hoped for a project later in life when I might better understand what my personal style was."

Megalopolis trailer

There have been a couple of Megalopolis trailers so far. The first was just a teaser showing Driver on top of a sk𝔍yscraper stoppi💛ng time. How♔ever, the main trailer, which you can watch🍃 above, is even more surreal. 

In it, Laurence Fishburne’s Fundi Romaine is driving around as he says in a voiceover: "When does an empire die? Does it collapse in one terrible moment? No, no, but there 𝕴comes a time when its people no longer believe in it." It also featured the first rea🍒l looks at Aubrey Plaza and Shia LaBeouf, as well as moving statues and neon-infused scenes.
