Moviegoers are saying
This polarizing PTA film splits audiences right down the middle, with viewers either praising Leonardo DiCaprio's comedic timing and the ensemble's 'big swings' or walking out within the first 10 minutes. The nearly 3-hour runtime becomes a make-or-break element, with some calling it gripping from start to finish while others find it an endurance test punctuated by Sean Penn's 'Oscar-worthy weird guy walk.'

One Battle After Another is an ensemble powerhouse, with Anderson taking a stab at what could be his most politically charged feature. DiCaprio is wonderful, but then again there's not a dull note in the entire cast.

The magnificent One Battle After Another stays true to the spirit of the reclusive author’s best books: It’s a brainy meditation on our dystopian present that’s also a whacked-out roller coaster ride.

This is a comedy with grim underpinnings, set in a society where violence seems to be the only answer. Anderson doesn’t find that exhilarating—if anything, he’s despairing about it—yet he soldiers on, pinpointing some truths so somber and dismal that it hurts to laugh about them.
