This is definitely one of Anderson's weaker films, and it feels directionless and jumbled at times. But that being said Anderson is STILL evolving as a film maker. It's astounding and this film does not lack visual suprises, deadpan explitives, and many of his now seemingly landmark stage play-esque set direction. Most importantly, the film does not lack emotion, with some genuine tear jerking scenes done in a way only Wes Anderson is capable of. If you don't know what I'm talking about, you probably haven't seen a Wes Anderson film. And if you haven't- What are you doing! Go watch a Wes Anderson film! You will thank yourself for giving truly unique art some of your time. Cheers!
