Plot summary

A cluster of postcard-perfect Acadian fishing villages off the coast of Nova Scotia, Canada made international news in 2013 when Phillip Boudreau, a local man known for poaching lobsters, was killed by fishermen in a crime the media dubbed 'Murder for Lobster.' But as anyone from the community will tell you, it's a lot more complicated than that. People don't just go around killing each other over lobster.

The subject of this documentary, essentially vigilante justice

The subject of this documentary, essentially vigilante justice, had a lot of potential. However, the film begins immediately as if the viewer is completely familiar with the event that it is based upon - a lobster fishing boat captain and crew member murdering a man caught robbing their traps. There is more complexity to it than that of course, but you aren't even introduced to that premise for quite awhile after you are asked to start forming opinions about what happened and who was right. Right about what? I have no idea what even happened! Another issue I found is that in several important police interviews and a few other interviews with locals I simply could not hear or understand what was being said due to either sound quality or local accents. Subtitles would have been useful or even necessary in these cases. The editing in my opinion was too scattered to make the story easy or impelling to follow. The story itself would have been a natural but it wasn't presented very well.

Common Thief Meets Consequences Of Actions

It's not horribly done but it's not exactly a well-told tale, either. Middle of the road, nothing else to watch, better than anything on ID, fare.

First, this adult that was an age to obviously know better than to behave as he was, finally met the consequences of his actions- the world has a way of meting out punishment and he met his. Incarceration had no effect on his criminality, no deterrent factor, no second thoughts, and he finally crossed someone who'd had just about enough.

I do not care that lobster USED TO BE A NICKEL A POUND, or that he had stolen for other people to make money, or that he was trying to survive; he knew exactly what he was doing, exactly what the penalty might be, and chose to continue. People trying to survive steal milk/bread/peanut butter/etc., he was doing this because he felt like he could. There's no survival in this. And with people all around him as what we witness in this case, it's no wonder. He wasn't created by those he stole from- oh no, he was created by the people who still continue to make excuses for him.

This isn't about lobsters being stolen, the gentleman that's a journalist is correct. This is about one man deciding to be a thieving, good-for-nothing, despicable human being, stealing others livelihood right in front of their face. I don't care how funny, how sweet, how generous, whatever the excuse, he took food out of the mouths of families trying to make an honest living, and they finally had enough. He was able to get away with it for so long, everyone just became accustomed to being stolen from, because law enforcement had little to no affect.

Vigilante justice may be what was handed out, but it is justice just the same. You can only subject a person to so much abuse before they finally stand up and fight back, and I hope Rheal and his loathsome mother can figure this out before he also becomes a statistic and smear on the sidewalk.
