It was enjoyable

Rating: 7/10 (10 May 2016)

Watching this feels like watching any other Wes Anderson movie, but there is a notable lack of character development. One would think that the characters learned a lot about themselves and each other, but by the end it seemed that hardly anything had really changed, other than the boy and the girl kind of end up together. The casting was good, but again, the lack of character development almost ruins the cast. It would've been interesting to see the changes in Edward Norton and Bill Murray's characters. There also wasn't much of a backstory for anyone, excluding the police chief who reveals his loneliness and his affair with the mother. This was an enjoyable movie to watch, but I wish that there was more detail with characters.
