    ★★★

    Megalopolis might be the only film I've ever seen that actually fits the 'so bad that it's good' cliche. It's completely ludicrous and insane from minute one, almost entirely devoid of filmmaking logic, and incredibly flawed throughout. And yet, in some ways I love it.

The pacing is precise (the structure of the film helps…

    Perfectly post-modern, insanely edited, immaculately ideologically articulated and passionately put together. Enough about my review; film was decent.
