- Austin Burke2. november 2025Bugonia is a strange, albeit honest, examination of the human condition and a look at how trauma can dictate decision-making. At the same time, this is an often-insane dark comedy that kept me on the edge of my seat and provided one of the most fascinating experiences of the year. Lanthimos is in his bag with the visuals, cinematography, and ability to get the best out of two top-tier actors. Where we ultimately wind up will frustrate some, but the way this film approaches the journey was far more entertaining than even I expected.
- Kevin Ward18. november 2025What a blast! Plemons and Stone bouncing off each other is pure pleasure from their deadpan volleys to the way each scene seems to tilt depending on who’s holding the power in the moment. I’m so glad I caught this in a theater, because it looks fantastic. The production design and those slightly skewed Yorgos compositions just pop on a big screen. And I loved that ending. From the moment Plemons teleports to the final shot, it’s Yorgos fully speaking my language. It’s strange, playful, and weirdly triumphant.
- Sacri Skizzers Charlotte-17 tBugonia pulled me into its atmosphere from the very beginning, and I felt strangely comfortable in it. I formed a clear opinion almost immediately and spent most of the film feeling confident that I understood what was happening. I was wrong. That is probably what I enjoyed most about it, how easily it lets you take a side and then quietly proves that you never had as much control over the story as you thought. Emma Stone fits into this kind of strange, uncomfortable world ridiculously well. She adapts to every tonal shift and somehow makes the absurdity feel completely believable. I genuinely did not expect the ending. I cannot say I loved where it ultimately went, but I really respect how carefully the film builds toward that point. Even when the conclusion did not fully work for me, everything leading up to it absolutely did.
- rg9400-5 d.Bugonia is a solid movie. It's heavily focused on stylistic choices, but it definitely makes for a captivating watch. For example, the way the camera moves smoothly as characters confidently strut across the frame or the surprisingly epic score accompanying the off-kilter aspect ratio. This is Yorgos Lanthimos though, and the weird and gorgeous cinematography is a given. In terms of plot and characters, I did find the movie to also be engaging, at least initially. It has a slightly Hitchock-esque vibe to it, and in fact, it has more than a few similarities with 10 Cloverfield Lane. It has a limited cast, a confined setting, and this tension built around the question of whether everything is being driven by aliens or not. Jesse Plemons is the standout in my opinion, really bringing the frustration of a man who has lost everything and wants to find someone to blame. The problem with this movie is that by the end, I felt like I couldn't really understand what it was trying to convey. It felt like it had some meaningful messages about the nature of systematic class strife, but instead, the movie sort of ends in a way that just left me scratching my head. Don't get me wrong, it isn't anticlimactic. It's a crazy movie with plenty of twists and turns that will keep you on your toes and make the movie's pace feel very zippy. The problem is more of intent and goal. Maybe I will understand it better after thinking about it, but that inscrutable ending is what prevents it from really being one of the better Lanthimos movies that I have seen.
- Garrett Wilkins4. juli 2026Bugonia further collapses the wall between prestige studio filmmaking and the kind of transgressive arthouse cinema that used to be pushed to the fringes. Yorgos Lanthimos hasn't lost his taste for ambiguity and discomfort. He's just doing it now with major studio money and a cast anchored by Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons. The result is a film that aggressively fights off conventional storytelling. It rarely goes where you expect, and while not every single left turn actually lands, you have to admire a movie this committed to challenging its audience rather than spoon-feeding them. Where Bugonia stumbles is in its consistency. Some of its unpredictability feels genuinely inspired. Other moments just feel weird for the sake of being weird, completely detached from any real narrative purpose. That said, even though I usually bounce off movies with heavy anti-humanity messaging, I ended up respecting what this film represents almost as much as the film itself. If Lanthimos can keep making uncompromising, auteur-driven projects on this scale, the line separating isolated arthouse from mainstream cinema will keep blurring-and both sides are better off for it. It won't enter my regular rotation, but I left encouraged by what it proves—ambitious, studio-backed cinema isn't dead yet.
