Even the process of downsizing is treated with a light-hearted touch. The depiction of people being sedated, shrunken, and then gently scooped up with spatulas, for example, plays out with a surreal, almost slapstick quality.
The interactions between the tiny inhabitants and their normal-sized environment also provide a source of humor. The absurdity of tiny people navigating a world with enormous flowers, insects, and everyday objects adds a comedic layer to the film’s exploration of environmental themes.
By wrapping its environmental message in humor and an outlandish premise, Downsizing invites viewers to consider serious issues in a fresh and entertaining way. It’s a blend of laughs and thought-provoking moments that makes the movie’s take on these global challenges both unique and memorable.
