Sick of it ? Wanna break ? Fancy a change ?

[DRD]

So many folk I know are a bit down at the mo. The relentless bad news, wars, problems, elec bills, inflation, idiocy etc etc

If you fancy a complete break in a better place.

Watch this. Amazing cast. Beautifully shot ...

 

[Graham Lowe]

Bought it the day it was released, superb.

 

[Arv]

Couldn't get into it and ended up switching off. Worth giving another go?

thought it was a bit strange,but stayed the distance and watched it until the end,the cat fell asleep on my lap halfway through though

Looks very Coen brothers in the trailer. I’ll try and give it a go. Thanks for the recommendation.

Love Wes Anderson

He's a big pinball guy and all the ones featured in his film are in a cafe he designed in Milan

 

[Will2.0]

IMO the worst Wes Anderson movie ever , I came out of the cinema actually angry
Little Alien was the only good bit

 

[Mozie]

True big fan of wes Anderson but this was thrash

 

[Sgt GrizZ]

Glad you enjoyed it but Unfortunately imo this is peak Wes Anderson in the worst possible way . Soulless and empty, a collection of characters desperately in search of some purpose .

I’ve been a big fan of his over the years , eagerly awaiting each new film but it pains me to say Wes has been really going downhill the last few. The French Dispatch was very poor also.

I think he needs to get another writer onboard and actually get back to telling great stories . Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums , The Life Aquatic were all wonderful .

He’s in danger of turning into the hipster Woody Allen - churning out increasingly poor movies in his later career.

Whoa. Trash the thread guys.

I made no claims that this was a brilliant film. Just that it offered escapism to those that might fancy a tonic or a change without alcohol, drugs or a revolver shot to the temple.

If folk want world class stuff, here is a list. Those with smaller numbers tend to be better than those with bigger numbers.
