Review of The Lobster (2015) by Vagueshape — 08 Jan 2019
Easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen. The whole thing is a pretentious dung heap for pseudo-intellectuals. If anything could be said in its favor it is that the initial plot is interesting as a concept.
However it quickly exhausts itself as an intellectual property by focusing on petty vulgarity and injecting a violence angle. Lost in a sea of its own decadence it then sloppily ends with a completely unlikely turn of events as established by the rest of the film that was allegedly "intelligent.
" It doesn't leave you with a feeling of something profound, it leaves you wondering how a film that pretended to be intelligent for so long could actually be as stupid as it really is by the end.
Don't waste your time on it.
