Typically strange like other Wes Anderson movies. But somehow remains a sweet ensemble comedy.

It's award worthy screenplay and well developed plot and characters makes this Wes Anderson's best film.

This is a beautiful creation by Wes Anderson (plus the co-writer Owen Wilson). I think this is one of the best films Anderson has created. Witty and interesting! Plus, the cast made a good combo. Loved it!

An absolutely perfect film for this star studded cast. When I first sat down t watch this movie I was expecting the many top actors to chew through the scenery to live up to something more than the movie is. The directing by Anderson was perfect. I felt like these great actors were humble in their performances, leading to a genuine film of love, anguish, despair, and hilarity. I am shocked that this movie has under 3 stars. I thought it was beautifully written, directed, and executed. A must-watch for everybody.

This is one of Wes Anderson's best films, a tragic portrayal of a family falling apart at the seams. The film finds its truth and comfort in dark comedy and the film's subtly funny moments work because they are buried in real human emotion. This is the closest Anderson's awkward, observational style gets to truly probing rich and relatable characters and it works beautifully.

Anderson's quirky style is at it's best here. I enjoyed the performances from the members of this fractured family and also the dry humor.

I like Wes Anderson, but this one didn't really do it for me. I felt this one was a bit sadder than funny.

This movie is not one the general masses will find entertaining. Its full of eccentric and bizarre characters who are rivaled only by the strange story. However, I really like this film. It has many funny moments and subplots. If you have unusual taste, this may be one you'll enjoy.

Strange movie. Some funny parts but overall I have to be in the mood to watch it. It has its moments but overall, not one of the best for any of the cast.
