We have our first contender for the worst movie of the year.

Almost a decade after his last feature film, Jean-Pierre Jeunet is back with a bizarre sci-fi comedy that satirizes the singularity and human dependence on technology. The problem is it doesn't work at all. 'Bigbug' is like a Saturday morning cartoon but for adults. Jeunet goes full bonkers creating an absurdist tale in which nothing makes sense. There's a ton of characters here, but none of them are funny or interesting; in fact, everyone's annoying. Jeunet and Guillaume Laurant's screenplay incorporates every sci-fi convention: robots trying to be human, hypercapitalism, evil AIs, global disasters... But the plot goes nowhere. Every intent on making a commentary about whatever is overshadowed by a wide variety of sex subplots that only purpose maybe was to get us to see these people half-naked almost all the time.

Miss the old days when Jeunet was making engaging art-house films with Marc Caro.

If you want to see something similar but better, check out the "Automated Customer Service" episode of 'Love, Death & Robots' season 2. Now that's how you make robot apocalypse fun.… Expand
