I saw A Lobster Tale yesterday at the Phoenix Film Festival. It is a terrific film. Colm Meaney, Alberta Watson and Jack Knight are fantastic. There is a great performance also by Graham Greene who was a perfect choice as the sheriff. It is a nice warm family film with a great message...yet has the laugh and cry moments too. I hope it gets picked up for distribution. Highly recommend it! If you are fan of Jericho/the TV show...there is a pivotal role in Lobster Tale played by Erik Knudsen who plays Dale the young store owner on Jericho. I had the pleasure of meeting the director, Adam Massey after the screening for a Q & A. He is one to watch out for, he will be making some great films in the upcoming years.
Wow, was I surprised to read the previous review by "bridgecheri" when I came to IMDb to check out the cast. We saw the film on the same day that review was posted and had a completely different reaction as did the people we were sitting with and those we discussed the film with after the show. My wife and I loved the film and thought it not only entertaining but very well done. I worked as an on set Hair Stylist in Los Angeles for years before moving to Washington and thought "A Lobster Tale" was well directed, had a wonderful story, exceptionally strong performances and was beautifully shot. After reading the two reviews posted on the film, we must say we are in agreement with "azmoviebuff" and would recommend this film.
. . . how good it was without all the bells and whistles and eye-candy special effects. This movie is a hold-over to a simpler time when the art of story-telling meant that even a very familiar and even predictable theme could keep you watching and leave you with a huge dose of good feelings and respect for the human condition when it reaches for the best.
I find Colm Meany to be a fascinating actor. Despite his successes in the Star Trek franchise he still finds himself attracted to very simple and down-to-earth human interest scripts. His name was the lobster-pot that drew me in. The bait was simple and basic fare -- some might say a little bland. But then "the moss happened"!
It's been a while since a movie has moved me to this degree of praise. It is a simple, very archetypal story: but written, directed, acted and produced unto superb effect.

A serious low budget film about what a miracle can do to simple normal people.
I loved every part of it. The ending was exactly how I pictured a true to life experience in the same situation.
Characters evaluate themselves and find the true meaning to giving and receiving. The message in this movie is not hard to see....
It's hard to find other movies that are true to the soul, like this one is.
Don't get me wrong, the movie also has some humor that keeps it fresh and exciting as well. I highly recommend the movie to anyone looking to sit back and relax in front of the television.

I thought a Lobster Tale was a really inspiring story. I hadn't heard of this movie a lot, but when I saw it, I told my friends all about it. The plot is really original and I loved the end result of the movie. What is great about this movie is that the whole family can watch it. I felt like my whole family enjoyed it and no one felt bored while watching it. The actors also in the movie made it really enjoyable. I felt that Colm Meaney played his part really well and was really believable. He was a great father is the movie, and the boy who played his son was also very good. All in all, I recommend going to see this movie; you won't be disappointed.

- Versões alternativasFeature Films for Families buys copyrights to family films and edits them to remove anything that might cause young children to ask awkward questions of their parents. They made 28 cuts deleting frames from the film and 6 additional cuts to the soundtrack that didn't cut the film length, shortening the film by 0:11:47, from 1:34:56 down to 1:23:09, and released their shortened version on DVD in 2009. Most of the deletions were to delete words or sentences containing the words: bastard (1), crap (5), damn (5), hell (4), Jesus (1), making-out (1), shit (1), shut up (1); some were to delete images: severed finger, burned arm, naked buttock, short red negligée, one boy repeatedly slugging another; some were to delete concepts: drinking beer (2), a man talking to another man's wife (2), erectile dysfunction (3), disrespect of public officials (sheriff shoplifting, sheriff littering, mayor saying of Moss World - "Just think what it'd do for the town"). One cut did eviscerate the mea culpa moment in Jake Brewer's view of what to do with the miracle moss: the deletion of the last exchange in Jake's talk with his best friend Mike after Mike says "Ya know, Jake, one day you'll lose someone you care about, and then you'll feel differently" [a reference to Mike's father who died 5 months before]. Jake: [deleted] I still won't give a crap about Timmy Brock. Mike: [deleted] Ya know, Jake, sometimes you can be a real looser. This prodding swayed Jake's perspective on whether the moss should be sold for $500,000 or used to save the life of the bully Timmy Brock.
