Babylon is a frenetic, oppulent, and debachurous Old Hollywood epic showcasing the highs and disturbing lows of the film industry as it transitions from silent films to talkies. This is a massive film that could have benefited from additional editing for some gross out sequences that aren’t necessary. However, its exploration of Hollywood’s toxic nature juxtaposed with the art that arises out of the ashes will leave you thinking long after you leave the theater.
