Whatever one can say about Coppola he put his own money into brining his vision to life. Is Adam Driver's character Coppola's take on Ayn Rand's Howard Roark?

I’ve watched the trailer of it but can figure out where it’s going.

Coppola lost me at Adam Driver.

Sounds like he just did a remake of the 1927 file ‘Metropolis’. Nothing new here.

So where are the “reviews” that are “in.”

I know Vince Vaughn likes the title.

Ditto. It’s his money. Coppola is betting the farm on a personal passion project on which he has apparently retained complete creative control. He’s swinging for the fences and assuming the very high risk of failure. I can respect that.

If critics and “reviewers” hate it, then count me in. Nowadays that’s the only way to get me interested in a film.
