Love at it's most basic.

Rating: 8/10 (10 July 2019)

Yorgos Lanthimos brings a unique love story that takes romance and sheds it down to the bare and basic. His attention to detail within this film is outstanding with every moment meaning something larger, every scene sends us a thousand words without any of the characters uttering any.
A film set within a near dystopian society where being lonely is a crime, people are sent to the mysterious hotel where they are forced to fall in love or else they are to be transformed into an animal of their choice. A mad idea plucked straight out of the genius mind of Yorgos Lanthimos.
Collin Farrell plays 'David', the only character with a name who is sent with his brother (who is also a Dog) to THE HOTEL after the death of his wife. He now has forty five days to find a new partner or he will be turned into a Lobster. His performance is pretty good, accurately showing a confused and bewildered loner with nowhere to go.
I reccomend this film for anyone who enjoys something different from a director who's imagination knows no boundaries. It is a clever and well put together that I see being considered a classic in the near future.
