We watched The Lobster yesterday. I don't know why. I also don't know why we didn't stop watching the first time one of us said: "This is really stupid, why are we watching it?".
IMDb:
Single people, according to the laws of The City, are taken to The Hotel, where they are obliged to find a romantic partner in forty-five days or are transformed into beasts and sent off into The Woods.
Director: Yorgos Lanthimos
Writers: Yorgos Lanthimos, Efthymis Filippou (as Efthimis Filippou)
Stars: Colin Farrell, Rachel Weisz, Jessica Barden
Rotton Tomatoes gave it a score of 90% and viewers gave it 68%.
We kept watching thinking it would get better and that the critics thought it great. Us? Not so much.
