From the director of Amelie and Delicatessen, Bigbug is a disappointingly shallow dystopia and uneven A.I. dark comedy. aurora_amidon's review of the Netflix film:
in 1991, not only did it quickly become recognized as one of the most promising directorial debuts in history, but it also did something rare: It managed to capture the world’s fragile social and political state through fiction.takes place in a dystopic near-future metropolis where food is scarce, and the most desperate have resorted to cannibalism.
Which is why, when word got out that Jeunet was teaming up with Netflix for a futuristic, artificial-intelligence-based dark comedy, it was by all accounts an exciting thing. Set in 2050,imagines a future where humanity has co-opted A.I. as friends, romantic partners, helpers and everything in between. Things take a dark turn, though, when a subset of robots called Yonyxs attempt to eradicate humankind, forcing the good robots to dutifully lock humans in their own houses for their protection.
is not only morally confusing, but tonally confusing. Some of this can be attributed to its performances, which often flip-flop between serious and theatrical. Some of it, too, can be boiled down to the way the film looks. Its bright pastel colors, sleek, sterile, animated look and frequent CGI intend to transport the film into the futuristic or the uncanny valley; actually, they make it look like a cotton candy-infused videogame.
