Fantastic Fest: The Lobster (2015)


Fantastic Fest 2015 is here.  This is the opening film.  A film that's absurd, comedic, quirky, and romantic.  Probably the most romantic movie I've seen this year.  Dystopian movie.  Colin Farrell plays a role he's never done before.  Loved it a lot.  Love the quirky moments (lots of dancing).  Love how this portrays relationships in real life.  It's done in an absurd way here but it was cool noticing how they were comparing stuff.  True love.  Bad relationships and marriage.  All in here.  Good start to the festival.  Kudos to the director who also did a weird movie a few years ago called Dogtooth.
8 out of 10.
