The Lobster

Ambiguous

If you like your movies all tied up in a pretty bow – this romantic DARK comedy ain’t for you.
Everything in this movie or should I say nothing in this movie is conclusive. I mean are you supposed to be a couple or not? Why do you have to be exactly like your mate? How the hell could you kick my dog, who was my brother, to death! What animal would you choose to be? Who was that rabbit we had for dinner? Why did she shoot the donkey? AND the ending – did he or didn’t he?
STILL I enjoyed this dystopian movie. I always love seeing John C Reilly. Colin Farrell is wonderful and Rachel Weisz is fantastic too
I still can’t get around the fact that this is a brilliant film. Mainly, it’s the fact that it’s just so unique and almost shockingly bizarre, but it’s just filled with so many captivating ideas that it’s impossible not to be fully drawn into this insane story.
So go or don’t go depends on you; but I probably have to go again.
