Typically stylish but deceptively thoughtful, The Grand Budapest Hotel finds Wes Anderson once again using ornate visual environments to explore deeply emotional ideas.

Rating: 10/10 (3 May 2015)

Wes Anderson's superb eye for visual storytelling comes to a head with this luscious murder mystery that starts out in an exclusive luxury hotel and thrills the audience throughout Europe.Those like myself who admire auteur-driven film making can celebrate with the release of "The Grand Budapest Hotel," the best movie of 2014 at this early stage, and perhaps likely to remain so for some time to come.Once again, Anderson has managed to make an affecting, funny movie; it may be more melancholy than most, but bittersweet love is love nonetheless, and The Grand Budapest Hotel is worth visiting multiple times.A quick-wit- comedic and vibrant presentation that can only be developed by Wes Anderson. The Grand Budapest Hotel is an overall marvelous film that is captivating from its artistic direction, sharp humor and dazzling performances from such a dynamic cast led by Ralph Fiennes
