Breaking the Fourth Wall


Should films like this ever break the fourth wall and literally, or figuratively, address the audience?

Personally, I think not. This is a fantasy epic. Not Ferris Beuller or The Naked Gun series.

Unfortunately, during one shot in this film, the filmmakers blatantly broke the fourth wall, lining up a series of characters who had no business being together at one moment as if they were in the middle of a photo shoot, rather than the middle of a sprawling intergalactic/interdimensional war.
