So Wes Anderson

Rating: 7/10 (23 September 2015)

This one lacked the impact and momentum of Wes Anderson's previous films. But it's so Wes Anderson that the style of it really brings this film to fruition. And I really liked the style and the direction of this film, especially when it comes to the odd and yet quirky interactions and humor. Again the retro vibe is just splattered on screen from beginning to end. When it comes to the story it sort of reminded me of a Wes Anderson's version of Peter Pan. I like the emotional battles between ideals and realism with emotions mixed in. This is a simpler Wes Anderson film that is really worth the watch. Not his best work, but Stylistically it's superb.
7.8/10
