Audacious, bold, overwhelmingly bleak with a streak of very black humor running through. Much like Yorgos Lanthimos earlier Dogtooth - this is not going to be a general crowd-pleasing film, but it is entirely unique and exceptional, even if the pacing can be a bit slow. This is biting satire wrapped in a grim future with weirdly unlikable yet unforgettable characters. If you want something different, The Lobster will fulfill your wish.
