Starring Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons, and Aidan Delbis, this was a movie I went into with almost no expectations\u2014and honestly, very little enthusiasm. Lanthimos has always been one of those filmmakers I assumed just wasn\u2019t for me. His films looked strange, off-putting, and deliberately weird in ways that didn\u2019t exactly scream \u201cmy kind of movie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Turns out, I was wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I caught <strong><em>Bugonia<\/em><\/strong> streaming on Peacock, mostly because I had the time and figured I had nothing to lose. What I ended up with was one of the more surprising and enjoyable movie-watching experiences I\u2019ve had in a while. I&#8217;m genuinely curious to explore the rest of Lanthimos&#8217;s filmography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without getting too deep into spoilers, the basic setup is simple: two men kidnap a powerful CEO because they believe she is an alien. That\u2019s really all you need to know going in. Jesse Plemons and Aidan Delbis play the kidnappers, while Emma Stone plays the executive at the center of their conspiracy. This is absolutely one of those films that benefits from knowing as little as possible beforehand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What makes <strong><em>Bugonia<\/em> <\/strong>work so well is how it constantly takes you in directions you don\u2019t expect. The movie toys with your assumptions, manipulates your perspective, and keeps shifting the ground under your feet. That manipulation is very much intentional and completely central to what the film is trying to say. The script doesn\u2019t just tell a story about belief and control; it actively practices it on the audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a dark comedy, but not a laugh-out-loud one. It\u2019s more satirical and observational, with humor rooted in discomfort and recognition. The film is very much about how people cling to beliefs, even when confronted with overwhelming evidence that they\u2019re wrong and, just as importantly, how easily others can be convinced of something that <em>is<\/em> true and still refuse to accept it. It\u2019s not subtle, but it doesn\u2019t need to be. The commentary feels extremely relevant to the world we live in now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jesse Plemons and Emma Stone are both excellent here. Their characters are intelligent, resourceful, and deeply flawed in different ways. Stone\u2019s Michelle Fuller operates from a polished, corporate, power-driven worldview, while Plemons&#8217; Teddy Gatz represents a more conspiratorial, internet-research-driven mindset. Watching these two go head-to-head is where the movie really shines. Their exchanges feel like a battle of wits, and the film is at its best when it lets those confrontations play out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another standout element is the score by Jerskin Fendrix. It\u2019s one of those soundtracks that sneaks up on you. You don\u2019t really notice it at first, but once you do, it becomes impossible to ignore. The music gradually takes on a personality of its own and adds an extra layer of tension and unease to the film. After hearing this score, it\u2019s easy to understand why his work on <strong><em>Poor Things<\/em><\/strong> earned awards attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Bugonia<\/em><\/strong> definitely isn\u2019t for everyone. If you\u2019re allergic to weirdness or uncomfortable themes, this probably won\u2019t convert you. But if you\u2019re like I was &#8212; on the fence about Lanthimos and unsure if his style is for you &#8212; this is a great entry point. In fact, I\u2019d go so far as to say this might be his most accessible film, or at least it feels that way to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m glad I finally gave this one a chance. It challenged my expectations, entertained me, and left me thinking long after it was over. That\u2019s more than I can say for most movies. <em><strong>Bugonia<\/strong><\/em> is a sharp, unsettling, and surprisingly engaging dark satire. It\u2019s a film I\u2019ll definitely be adding to my collection.<\/p>\n\n\n<span class=\"fsrs\"><span class=\"fsrs-stars\"><i class=\"fsrs-fas fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><i class=\"fsrs-fas fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><i class=\"fsrs-fas fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><i class=\"fsrs-fas fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><i class=\"fsrs-fas fa-fw fa-star-half-stroke \"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"hide fsrs-text fsrs-text__hidden\" aria-hidden=\"false\">4.5 out of 5.0 stars<\/span><span class=\"lining fsrs-text fsrs-text__visible\" aria-hidden=\"true\">4.5<\/span><\/span>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is absolutely one of those films that benefits from knowing as little as possible beforehand.
