Review of The Lobster (2015) by Drlowdon — 10 Jun 2017

After his wife leaves him for another man David (Colin Farrell) is sent to a hotel for single people. The “catch” is that everyone at the hotel has 45 days to find a partner or they’ll be transformed into an animal of their choosing, David’s choice is a lobster, hence the title.

I think it’s pretty safe to say that The Lobster is a rather strange film, and many people (understandably) just won’t connect with at all. Personally I found it to be an interesting, and often darkly comic, watch however and viewers looking for a movie that offers something completely different should certainly check it out.
