"Coppola made the film his way, on his terms. Loads of improvisation, loads of free-flowing ideas. He didn't have any nasty money men standing over him telling him what to do. And the result is, I think, not only his worst film, but one of the worst films I have ever seen."

Oh gods..... this is what I had feared would be the result.
Part of me hoped it would be a massive success and other filmmakers would step outside the system and make their own films on their own.
crap

@setto @Nanard_Groubiche Kermode's a legitimate critic. He's screamed himself hoarse over the years standing up for filmmakers who take big, daring swings. So I'm not sure what about him would lead you to believe he's anti-artist somehow.

Many of the character names in MEGALOPOLIS will ring familiar to students of ancient Rome, with the possible exception of "Wow Platinum"

(tbh though, if you have to come up for a name for a character played by Aubrey Plaza, you could do a lot worse than "Wow Platinum")

Call me a cynic, but I suspect we are not going to get this bit when MEGALOPOLIS screens in Myrtle Beach

@jalefkowit This sounds like a complete train wreck and everyone is just too polite to say it out loud.

@tsturm Overall the reviews so far have been more mixed. Kermode may be an outlier.
