Although it doesn't reach the depth of human emotion that Tenenbaums or Rushmore does, Darjeeling Limited is a welcome addition for those who love Anderson's quirky and colorful style (I do.) The deadpan humor and spot-on casting makes for a light-hearted (mostly) and enjoyable experience, though not the deepest. |

Entertaining in the way that only Wes Anderson's films are. Neither the worst or best of the director's work, but at least it's consistent. I found it pleasing and chuckled throughout. |

I really enjoyed this film, with a presence of great actors working with a great director that they have all worked with in the past: and to this, a great deal of chemistry is brought onto the screen. Wes Anderson's style is visually interesting, as well as being rather droll, making the "boringness" of his plots even more interesting with the quirkiness of his characters. Owen Wilson does well as the leader in this film, and is accompanied by a handful of equally quirky characters. A win. |

"The Darjeeling Limited" by Yojimbo |
|
Three estranged brothers go on a voyage of self discovery in India to reconcile after the death of their father. I've never really "got" Wes Anderson; maybe it's a cultural thing, but his films have always left me a little cold. The Darjeeling limited is another example, although his talent for pleasing visuals is in full effect once more and beautiful landscapes embellished with a palette of vibrant colours means it's always easy on the eye. But once more I couldn't help the feeling that scratching the surface of his work reveals yet more surface. The two-part format felt a little bullshitty and I didn't connect with any of the characters at all. It didn't make me laugh, it didn't make me cry, it didn't make me feel anything; it's just kind of there. In the end The Darjeeling limited in ... |

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... |

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... |
