Aubrey Plaza Is the Only Person Who Knows What Type of Film 'Megalopolis' Is
Aubrey Plaza's scheming, glamorous baddie Wow Platinum steals every scene she's in with Francis Ford Coppola's bonkers Megalopolis.
Moviegoers who havent watched Megalopolis yet will probably have an idea if they want to see it or not. If you can push aside the colosseum-size amount of negative reaction by unimpressed critics, bad word of mouth, and poor box office success, this film has given us a performance by Aubrey Plaza that is easily the best part of Francis Ford Coppolas fable. Emily the Criminal and The White Lotus have taken Plaza away from her comedic, deadpan roles, and now with Megalopolis, out of the whos who ensemble of actors, Plaza steals every scene that shes in as the scheming, glamorous Wow Platinum. She delivers the absurd and spectacular energy that this baroque film requires and becomes a theatrical, cunning villain capable of nearly thwarting the utopia Adam Driver hopes to create.
