An unusual film, just not to my taste

Rating: 5/10 (27 September 2017)

'The Grand Budapest Hotel' is a rarity in the world of film in that there's nothing really like it out there. It's one of a kind and is near impossible to categorise, let alone describe. It's a fascinating film to watch due to its sheer weirdness, but it's also divisive in that some people will love it and others just wont see what all the fuss is about.
I'm probably somewhere between the two - on the fence if you like. I was entertained for most of the film, but the story did nothing for me and neither did the humour. For all its style, the film lacks a solid and coherent plot and ends up just being a silly and shallow little adventure.
Its quirky and weird nature makes it memorable, but it's a film I'll only ever watch once. 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' is an unusual film, but just not to my taste.
