From reading the penny arcade blog about it and watching the trailer, it seems to be an arthouse movie that just happens to be made by the most famous people on earth. You might love it or hate it but most people just won’t get it either way
For $120 million.
Damn, cinema tickets have really gone up in cost
To be fair, that includes a large popcorn.
Ticket is 50 cents without the popcorn
What’s the drink size like?
With or without butter? Gotta know if I’m getting my money’s worth here.
At that price I’m definitely sneaking in my own drink and snacks.
OP lives in Zimbabwe and built their own top-end basement home theater in preparation for the movie.
Sounds to me like some self indulgent, pompous, crap but that’s just me.
I agree, it was shallow and pedantic.
It’s wild this mf made an Atlas Shrugged-ass movie while everyone out here is living like Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle.

Nice theater tho!

Turns out, they just want money and power. That’s it, they can’t save us. Why is this movie venerating them?
Yeah, but then you have to watch Megalopolis.
Maybe your AC is out and you need a nap?
Maybe you are a career politician and need to wank off someone and vape without getting in the news about it.
Or a politician looking for a lot of vacant upholstery to vilolate?
This is how my wife uses The Carousel of Progress when we go to Disney World.
My favorite part is when the main character shouts “its megalopolin time” and then he megalopped all over the place
Mine too, but after that it was pretty slow
Ya but i heard there’s an Amy Plaza face sitting scene. Seems like this years movie of the year to me.
I’ve seen it and that’s the high point of the film.
When I heard about this movie I thought is was a live action movie adaptation of the anime classic Doomed Megalopolis.
Turns out is was a doomed Megalopolis of a different sort.

Is that South Bank Cineplex?
