   Is the lobster a good movie?

   • The Lobster especially is one of the most unique films I’ve seen in a decade. The premise is not only bizarre, but it features some wonderful irony about the absurdity of relationships. Lanthimos' particular style, characterized by intense camera movements and exquisite shot compositions, is reminiscent of the best Kubrick.

   Is 'the lobster' a funny movie?

   • “The Lobster” is often startlingly funny in the way it proposes its surreal conceits, and then upsettingly grim in the way it follows through on them. It’s not quite that suicide, mutilation and murder are treated as jokes, but more that the boundary between the serious and the silly has been almost entirely erased.

   What is 'the lobster' about?

   • Those are interesting too, though. “The Lobster” could be thought of as an examination of the state of human affections in the age of the dating app, a critique of the way relationships are now so often reduced to the superficial matching of interests and types.

   How is the lobster filmed?

   • The Lobster is filmed naturalistically, quite enough theatricality being provided by the weirdness of the whole set-up and the affectless delivery. Be warned: it does at moments resemble experimental theatre or even a drama workshop. But it is so well written, so thoroughly executed, such a brilliant and original conceit.

   Is the lobster a love story?

   • For a love story, The Lobster is consciously cold and artificial, as if it's daring viewers to be moved, or invested in the outcome. It's unclear in the end whether the characters have learned anything, and whether connections made under duress have become real or calcified into habit.
