Wes Anderson's new comedy is a great film and definitely one to watch.

Rating: 7/10 (30 December 2012)

Wes Anderson returns to his comfort zone with his new comedy set in 1965 where two 12-year-olds Sam and Suzy, played by the talented newcomers Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward, set out to the wilderness to escape their wretched lives. Hayward and Gilman lead an all-star cast of Bill Murray, Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, Jason Schwartzman, Harvey Kietel, Tilda Swinton, Bob Balaban and Frances McDormand. Murray and Schwartzman have worked with Anderson on several films as the Royal Tennabaums, Fantastic Mr Fox, The Life Aquatic and The Darjeeling Limited. While Kietel's role is more of a cameo but a good one. Willis and Norton give great performances while Murray and McDormond bring great ones! My result for Moonrise Kingdom is 4 stars out of 5 stars and 9/10.
