Truly Different

Rating: 9/10 (30 March 2014)

This movie is destined to become a cult classic. Viewers will either love the story, humor, and look of this film or they will hate it. I'm not sure how many will be in each camp, but the folks in the love camp will surely watch this movie over and over again. There is something about the pacing, the use of language, and that trademark Wes Anderson look that renders a fresh and completely new experience. Even the use of profanity is done in a way which endears more than offends. I have always admired Anderson's work, but this film represents the absolute best of one of the most interesting and original directors out there. Lastly, the cast is perhaps one of the best ever assembled. It looks like they had an awful lot of fun making this movie. Highly Recommend.
