Bugonia - Recensies

...is offbeat and outrageous but has a deadly serious underlying theme.

Fears unfounded – Bugonia is an absolute blast.

...a casually sardonic black comedy which might constitute his most approachable film to date...

Yorgos Lanthimos’s macabre and amusing new film has a predictably strong performance from Emma Stone...

Jesse Plemons is convinced Emma Stone is an alien in Bugonia, and gives her the Ripley buzzcut to prove it. It’s career-best work for both of them.

...despite trailers marketing the film as a raucous, bloody affair, Bugonia might actually be Lanthimos’ most digestible film to date.

...unearths new depths of existential anxiety engendered by our tumultuous times.

It's sick and twisted enough to stick with you, and the closing moments are particularly delightful (in a bleak sort of way).

This twisted, genre-bending reimagining will delight some viewers but leave others baffled.

...hyper-contained, rigorously controlled torture chamber...

Director Yorgos Lanthimos continues to get the best out of his Poor Things star.

Is there a director-actor partnership quite as creatively fertile as that of Yorgos Lanthimos and Emma Stone?

...a masterfully macabre internet-bubble satire, about a thrustingly successful young pharmaceutical chief executive (Stone) who is kidnapped by one of her lowliest employees.

...might be as blissfully bonkers as the era of its release, yet don’t let that distract from what a masterclass in directorial control the film represents for Yorgos Lanthimos.
