«Ο Λάνθιμος δεν απογοήτευσε τους φαν του»; Δεν φαντάζομαι να κάνει σινεμά για «τους φαν του».Και από την κριτική της Guardian:" It’s an adventure which begins by being bizarre and hilarious but appears to run out of ideas at its mid-way point, and run out of interest in what had at first seemed to be its central comic image: humans turning into animals....But once we leave the hotel for the forest, some of the film’s energy, atmosphere and control is dissipated: the superbly clenched, angular weirdness and explosive gags lose their direction and force and Lanthimos’s distinctive weirdness begins to look self-conscious and contrived."http://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/may/15/the-lobster-review-cannes-film-festival-2015
