The Lobster, is undoubtedly one of the strangest movies I've seen, its plot is quite simple to understand but complicated to understand, and is that in a dystopian world, if you are single you enter a hotel where you must find a partner in a certain time to avoid being turned into an animal.
One of the directors that catches my attention is Yorgos Lanthimos who directs what I think is his best film. And if you like movies that will leave you thinking once you finish them, you will definitely love the films of Yorgos Lanthimos.
Moving on to the main actors, we find a very peculiar Colin Farrell, who plays a very restrained role although it is obviously due to the script. On the other hand there is Rachel Weisz who is not very well known by the general public but I find her to be a brilliant actress, who also due to the script is very restrained.
As for the genre it varies between comedy, drama, suspense and science fiction. The film can be considered in several ways, from my point of view is a criticism of society which is obsessed with living in a couple and implies that you can both live well being alone or in a couple. Yorgos Lanthimos, expresses this idea in a very peculiar way that I personally love.
I have seen this film several times, 3 times to be precise, and without a doubt it gets better with each viewing because you realize many details that makes this film an authentic masterpiece.
The ending is very ambiguous and speaking with SPOILERS, gives rise to think that when he is in the bathroom of the restaurant, the protagonist either finally has cut his eyes or has become a lobster, from my point of view I think the second option is viable since you hear the waves of the sea and you can see the title of the film indicating that the same has been given a second chance as an animal.
As I have already said it gives rise to many points of view, it is a brilliant film and I am sure that once you have seen it you will want to see it again, it is highly recommended.
