Jesse Plemons is explaining his homework to me. In Bugonia, another trippy, absurdist head-scratcher from Oscar-nominated Greek auteur Yorgos Lanthimos, the talented Texan portrays a disillusioned conspiracist named Teddy who hatches a frightening plan to kidnap the millionaire CEO of a major pharmaceutical company (Emma Stone's Michelle). He thinks she's an alien, sent here to study our world before her people destroy it.

There is still a storyline here; in fact, there are several ongoing threads, and I'm sensing that some seemingly throwaway scenes and interactions might remain relevant much later in the season. Broadly speaking, the plot follows a man who thinks he has discovered some sort of criminal conspiracy related to a chair company, then starts to lose control of his life as he travels deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole. That's easy to get our heads around, even if some of the detours aren't.

Prosecutors alleged during trial that the conspiracy was laid out in texts between Wenger and fellow officers Morteza Amiri and Eric Rombough, who discussed beating people, hitting them with less lethal launchers, and dog bites. In one exchange, Amiri then a K9 officer wrote, Let's (expletive) some people up next work week, and Wenger reposnded, Bro, (expletive) to the mother(expletive)ing yes, according to prosecutors.

2025 is a year of Tim Robinson trying new things: First, he starred in his very own A24 comedy Friendship, now streaming on Max, and now he has an HBO comedy series coming in October. The Chair Company, created by Robinson and longtime collaborator Zach Kanin, will star Robinson as a man "investigating a far-reaching conspiracy... after an embarrassing incident at work."

Yorgos Lanthimos's macabre and amusing new film has a predictably strong performance from Emma Stone, an intestine-shreddingly clamorous orchestral score from Jerskin Fendrix and, most importantly, a wonderful montage finale but frankly it's a very, very long run-up to that big jump. Added to which, there is the question of whether this bizarre if sometimes heavy-handed black comedy has fully earned its eventual pivot to serious tragic issues in the ending.
