Bugonia Review: A Satirical Fury
Yorgos Lanthimos's Bugonia is a unique blend of corporate satire, eco-horror, and cosmic paranoia. The film features Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons, Stavros Halkias, and Alicia Silverstone.
The movie is a reimagining of the 2003 Korean cult film Save the Green Planet!, with a premise that is both absurd and plausible. A deluded beekeeper, Teddy (Jesse Plemons), kidnaps Michelle Fuller (Emma Stone), the CEO of a pesticide empire, believing it to be an alien plot to destroy humanity.
The film is a bizarrely elegant cocktail of corporate satire, eco-horror, and cosmic paranoia, shaken with his trademark deadpan and served cold.
What unfolds is a complex mix of torture thriller, philosophical chess match, and tragicomic fable, questioning who is really destroying the planet and why we insist on believing in aliens rather than accountability.
Author's summary: Bugonia is a satirical film with a unique blend of genres.
