It’s Wes Anderson at his most Wes Anderson. If you like Wes Anderson then you’ll probably like this, if you don’t then you’ll hate it. If you’ve never seen a Wes Anderson pic then I’d give it a go but be prepared to be confused.

For me it’s not one of his best but I’d probably watch it again and may appreciate it more on a second viewing.

I saw it in a theater. I think Wes Anderson is always more about style than substance and this is one of his most stylish pastiches. I enjoyed it a lot but wouldn’t call it the greatest thing since slice bread. It helps your appreciation if you are familiar with The New Yorker.

I enjoyed it very much. Yes, I recommend it. It’s not the greatest movie ever made, but it’s a lots of fun.

Thanks jellies! I think I’m going to watch it now.

I enjoyed Bottle Rocket, Tenenbaums, Mr.
Fox and The Grand Budapest Hotel. The rest not so much.
