This is not a review. This is a warning. If I gave Francis Ford Coppola’s “Megalopolis” a standard movie review and told you that it was an incoherent mess on par with “Rebel Moon” (which it is), your fanboy reflexes would kick and you’d write me off. You’d take me as just another pair of glasses dead set on panning a movie just to bolster their art cred. I hate critics like that, and so do you.

So I’m telling you this not as a reviewer, but as a friend: Do not see this movie. It is a piece of s—t.

    Is it a beautiful abstract mess in the same vein as The Tree of Life by Terrence Malik, or Under the Skin by Jonathan Glazer? Because if it is, I think I’ll skip it. To each his/her/their own!

      Lol I love/hate The Tree of Life. If it goes in that direction I’ll have to watch.
