‘Bunker’ Review: A Tech Billionaire Asks Javier Bardem to Build a Doomsday Ark in Florian Zeller’s Heavy-Handed Social Thriller

Florian Zeller's film Bunker, debuting at the Venice Film Festival, stars real-life spouses Javier Bardem and Penélope Cruz as Miguel and Sofia Moreno. The social thriller explores isolation and marital crisis after 17 years together, set within a modernist East End home. The plot involves a tech billionaire requesting a doomsday ark. While some critics find the work riveting and the acting brilliant, others describe the production as heavy-handed and a waste of the leads' talents.
