Critics consensus

“More of a creative manifesto than a cogent narrative feature, Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis is an overstuffed opus that's equal parts stimulating and slapdash.”

A bloated mess of philosophising and incomplete plotlines, made with such sincerity it becomes fascinatingly lovable.

It becomes conventionally digestible only when it occasionally turns into an old-fashioned love story.

I love the earnestness, sincerity, and ingenuity behind this... I can't say it's good, but I think people should see it -- and in IMAX to take in the enormity of it all.

I’m still not sure that what I saw was an actual film, or an expensive and overly-long proof of concept for a film.
