Planet City (2020)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

The entire population of the earth could live in a giant city occupying a fraction of the Earth’s surface, freeing the rest of the world for rewilding and return of stolen lands, according to a new movie by architect Liam Young. Young’s fictional Planet City movie proposes a hyper-dense metropolis housing 10-billion people that could be built on 0.02 per cent of the planet.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
