Megalopolis was the dumbest thing i ever seen

[ShaDynasty]

This is one of the goofiest films I've ever seen. Its a cross between The Fifth Element & The Fountainhead. Which is a mix that shouldn't work, and doesn't.

Its a comedy. Coppola makes every scene ridiculous. I'd like to believe he has enough self awareness to know hes being silly, but who knows with old people. There are concepts and elements in the film that are interesting, but the writing and editing isn't coherent enough to push those things to the front.

Aubrey Plaza makes all her scenes spank material. Shia Labeouf plays Trump as a cross dresser. Adam Driver is a major ham. This is a cult piece of trash along the lines of Showgirls or The Island Of Dr Moreau, but with the budget and cast its an elevated piece of trash.

But why is it the dumbest thing you've ever seen?
Details please

aubrey plaza had the worst seduction scene, she couldn't act her way out of a paper bag in this movie.

shia was like, "as long as I get to lick on ya, say what ya want."

Spoiler: Spoiler

The only good thing I have to say is it starts with a interesting concept. It's what if modern America was ancient Rome.

But it goes completely off the rails. Adam driver's character has the ability to freeze time. But its never explained how or why. And its never relevant to the plot. You can take it out and it has no effect whatsoever. And he only used it a few times where it had nothing to do with anything.

There's one scene out of nowhere where a satellite just crashes to earth and explodes. It's not mentioned at all before it happens or after it happens. Just like 30 second clip inserted.

Adam driver gets shot in the face and has half his head blown off. They heal him with some mysterious compound he invented. He walks around with a bandadge for a few scenes and then he's just magically OK the next. Again it showed half his head missing.

Adam driver plays Caesar. But he's really just a urban planner. Lol. He spends the whole movie trying to build megalopolis. But you only see it the last few minutes of the movie. And it's basically a magical cgi park lol. It's so stupid. The whole movie for that.

He also directly quotes Shakespeare to start off. And his character spends mucj of the movie talking like a shakespearean play. Needless to say time after time he says a bunch of fukking words and you're just like.... what?!

The plot really makes no sense. I wouldn't eveñ really call it a plot. Adam driver is trying to build megalopolis by gentryfying poor people is as basic as I can make it

the Julius Caesar that we know him to be comes from Shakespeare

Island of Dr Moreau was coherent and somewhat enjoyable
