The Lobster is a world bleached of color and individuality. Full Review

Rating: B+ -- It's a razor-sharp dark comedy that is sure to alienate some audience members while utterly fascinating others. Full Review

Jan 15, 2019
A black comedy laced with moments of shocking cruelty, the film is a dystopian allegory about the human need to find a mate -- a brilliant, if morbid, meditation on relationships in the age of the dating app.

It plays on two different tones very strongly...I would recommend it to cinephiles. Full Review

It takes a touch of audacity and madness to make a film like this, a screwball, absurdist tragedy...

Rating: 4/5 -- The claustrophobia of these airless worlds has been at times amusing but often stifling. However, with The Lobster Lanthimos has broadened his scope and has created a marvellously bleak, bizarre comedy. Full Review

Mr. Lanthimos’s method is to elicit an appreciative chuckle followed by a gasp of shock, and to deliver violence and whimsy in the same even tone. THE LOBSTER is often startlingly funny in the way it proposes its surreal conceits...

Product Description:

After his wife leaves him, David (Colin Farrell) is sent to a hotel for single adults and urged to find a new significant other within 45 days -- if he fails, he will be transformed into an animal of his choosing. David eventually meets a runaway from the hotel (Rachel Weisz), and the two begin a secret romance. Léa Seydoux, Jessica Barden, Olivia Colman, Ben Whishaw, and John C. Reilly co-star. This absurdist dystopian comedy is the first English-language feature from Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos, and was nominated for the Palme d'Or at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival.
