FILMRECENSION. Radikalisering, trauman och klimatkollaps. Stora teman i ”Bugonia”.
Men kanske känns det allra mest som ett passionerat skilsmässodrama mellan Emma Stone och Jesse Plemons.

Den energiska Yorgos Lanthimos är tillbaka igen, denna gång med en remake av en sydkoreansk förlaga. En köttig komedi som tar sig an konspirationsteoretiker och Big Pharma med en mäktig mix av fantasi och fasa, skriver Fredrik Sahlin.

Frenesin i Yorgos Lanthimos nya film är till lika delar attraherande och repellerande. Vill vi verkligen se en fastbunden Emma Stone få flera 100 volt genom kroppen?

VENEDIG 2025- ”Bugonia” är en sällsamt ösig och intensiv konspirationsthriller om vårt världsläge. Filmen exploderar flera gånger i regelrätta våldsorgier men är samtidigt emellanåt så rolig att jag skrattar på mig.

Roger Ebert
It’s telling that a film about aliens judging the rottenness of our species comes from a Greek filmmaker using America as a setting.

High On Films
“Bugonia” is rarely subtle in the points that it’s making, but there’s such perverse pleasure to be found in this graphic comedy-of-errors that it’s easy to get on the film’s idiosyncratic wavelength.

Variety
"'Bugonia' turns into a wild and galvanizing suspense thriller of action and ideas...the film transitions into something deeply cosmic and humane. It leaves us stunned by what happens to the world these two have been fighting over, by what a powerful and vulnerable place it is."

The Guardian
Yorgos Lanthimos’s macabre and amusing new film has a predictably strong performance from Emma Stone, an intestine-shreddingly clamorous orchestral score, and a wonderful montage finale – but frankly it’s a very, very long run-up to that big jump.

IGN
What Bugonia says about haunting online feedback loops is worth introspection. We live in a reality where anyone’s farthest-flung ideas can find a community; the cult of Reddit forum prophets is stronger than ever.

Deadline
Bugonia may be way out there, but I haven’t seen a film this year that feels as much of the moment for a world spinning out of control. It is indeed pure entertainment, but we should pay attention to what it is trying to say.

/Film (Slashfilm)
"Ultimately, 'Bugonia' seems destined to be considered one of the 'lesser' collaborations between Yorgos Lanthimos and Emma Stone while also being one of 2025's more memorable films. It's sick and twisted enough to stick with you, and the closing moments are particularly delightful (in a bleak sort of way). I just wish it all added up to a little bit more."

Rotten Tomatoes
Lanthimos’ absurdist worldview has never felt sharper or more relevant, and Stone continues to prove she’s his ideal muse. It’s not a perfect film, but it’s a fascinating one.
