Someone has compiled all the funniest bits from box-office flop ‘Megalopolis’ so that ‘no one has to ever watch it again’
Even if you haven’t seen it, you’re probably aware of the recent movie Megalopolis. It was written, produced and directed by Francis Ford Coppola, legendary director of all-time classic films The Godfather I and II, Apocalypse Now and The Conversation.
Unfortunately, the ‘epic science fiction drama’ doesn’t quite reach the dizzy heights of those masterpieces, despite having a stellar cast including Adam Driver, Dustin Hoffman, Aubrey Plaza, Jon Voight and many others. It’s been widely derided by critics and box-office takings have been pitifully low for such a big budget movie.
After all the bad reviews we’re certainly in no rush to see it ourselves, but we were kind of intrigued to see just how bad it could be.
Luckily, Twitter user Kil Zanderz has shared some of the funniest and weirdest moments from the film so we can get a flavour of it’s bizarre awfulness.

It certainly looks… different. This montage is slightly NSFW.

I’ve been debating if I should spend a few hours of my life watching this movie.
After seeing these clips, it’s an easy: No https://t.co/51CuFqyUFl— Drew Wilson (@drewwilson) November 18, 2024

Genuinely have never had a cinema experience like Megalopolis. The film ended and everyone just burst out laughing. Unbelievable stuff.
Terrible film mind. https://t.co/q3kv2B0ca8

Paul Kilduff-Taylor went further.
This post is not accurate because *every scene in the entire movie* is like this. It is unrelenting. There needs a new German word invented to describe the emotion that this film evokes. https://t.co/GZMTeFjP74
