Wes Anderson continues his run of quirky, yet entertaining, films. Adrian Brody meshes well with Anderson veterans Wilson and Schwartzman. It has that mix of comedy and melancholy that only Anderson can make work. A fine film. |

Annoying |
|
I had very low expectations coming into this movie but I was still disappointed. With a running time of an hour and thirty minutes, it felt longer than "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy. I really enjoyed "Rushmore" and "The Royal Tenenbaums" so I am not completely a Wes Anderson hater. But I did not like "Bottle Rocket" and "The Aquatic Life of Steve Zissou" in any level, which made me question Anderson's film-making ability. I wonder if he has crossed the line between originality and pretentiousness. In this film, there were barely any genuine laugh; I actually had to force myself to laugh at every little "chuckle" moments because I was so bored. Things did get a little bit better when Angelica Houston appeared on screen. There's something about her presence and eloquence that's deeply fas... |

More of the same....like that's a bad thing. |

Wes Anderson continues to be one of the most consistent directors working today, if not to a fault. If you love his style, then you'll love this movie. This film seems a little more well polished and focused then his last couple of films, with a nice dash of spirituality thrown in. Clever, funny, and dry as a desert, Anderson does it again. |

Wes Anderson Unlimited! |

i enjoyed it. i felt 1) it didn't really have a point and 2) when it ended, it was too soon, but I gave it 7/10. It was enjoyable. smiled throughout the whole thing just cause it was a Wes Anderson movie.
There is a sex scene in this that is interesting. It doesn't show below their waists, but it is extremely sultry/sexy and I don't believe I've seen that in a movie before.
The German ladies were good!
My thoughts on Peter/ Adrian Brody's character (Minor spoilers). I have read several reviews where the guy says he "regrets" marrying his wife Alice. This is not true. He says he loves Alice and wants to be with her forever, but he just figured that their marriage would end up in divorce.
Finally, I would love to see a sequel to this film. There were several plot points that wer... |
