Darjeeling Limited

Pros: Anderson's Direction, Script, Cinematography, Location, Look, Soundtrack, & Cast.

Cons: None, Unless You Don't Quirky Humor or Themes.

The Bottom Line: Hotel Chevalier/The Darjeeling Limited is Wes Anderson's Most Mature, Poignant Masterpiece with a Great Cast that includes Wilson, Schwartzman, & Brody.

Review: Known for his quirky, heartfelt, and melancholic films, Wes Anderson is among one of the modern auteurs of the 21st Century. Along with fellow American directors like Sofia Coppola and David Gordon Green, Anderson is among those as part of the new ...

Pros: Quite funny, very emotional, great quirks, fine acting

Cons: Not all lose ends are wrapped up, perhaps a little too short

The Bottom Line: Wes Anderson has made five films and he has yet to disappoint me.

Review: Tonight was perhaps the night I had been looking foreword to most all year. Being a huge fan of Wes Anderson this would mark the first time I had seen one of his films in theaters and after viewing the trailer time after time and reading early reviews I ...

Pros: Great cast. Quirky but moving script. Beautiful scenery. Inventive art direction. GREAT music!

Cons: Hmmmm...nothing springs to mind.

The Bottom Line: For me this film was a visual and emotional treat...an immersion in another point of view and another world. I know others find Anderson's work off-putting...but for me, it's fabulous.

Review: If you haven't cared for Wes Anderson movies in the past, THE DARJEELING LIMITED will probably not help you get over that hurdle. In my opinion, his flat-out funniest film is still THE ROYAL TENNANBAUMS...but if you don't like that, it's hard to imagine ...

Pros: -Great Cast-Great Directing-Great Writing

Cons: The movie can come across a bit precosious.

The Bottom Line: The Darjeeling Limited, is a very humorous, and heartwarming film, and is my favorite movie of '08 so far.

Review: With a great cast, a great score, and a great director, this movie was set-up perfectly. Would it make us laugh and cry for the right reasons, or the wrong ones? A very notable writer has called it a “magically compelling” movie, and I think it ...

Pros: Anderson's directing style, Owen, Portman

Cons: jumpy conclusion, can leave you wishing for more detail

The Bottom Line: The Darjeeling Limited is more weird filmmaking by Wes Anderson

Review: Wes Anderson’s short but dominating track record including Rushmore and The Royal Tenenbaums continues with The Darjeeling Limited. His style further evolves with this next piece and he persists in his loyal adherence to Hemingway’s Iceberg ...

Pros: Great cast, amazing scenery

Cons: May be too off-beat for general audiences

The Bottom Line: It's worth seeing just to check out the Indian locations.

Review: The Darjeeling Limited is an oddball movie about three brothers who go on a spiritual journey through India. It stars Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, and Jason Schwartzman as the brothers. This movie was directed by Wes Anderson, who previously did ...

Pros: poignant, richly detailed, symbolic, full of mysteries and clues

Cons: not hilarious so much as ironic, slow to develop

The Bottom Line: More philosophical than funny, this is still a neat film for smart people.

Review: Writer-director Wes Anderson trades in tragicomedy. The characters who inhabit his tales are usually family members in oblivion, odd characters fated for estrangement by their individual oddities, but who struggle heroically to forge, or save, the kinds ...

Pros: The entire cast, visuals, humour, family themes

Cons: Nothing really, it just drags in the second half a bit

The Bottom Line: Also, if you see this film, check out the short Anderson did for some backstory at www.hotelchevalier.com.

Review: Perhaps one of the most anticipated movies of the year is one that’s selling tickets like wildfire—and no, I’m not talking about a blockbuster movie, but an independent film on limited release by none other than one of the hipsters of cinema, ...

Pros: ...

Cons: ...

The Bottom Line: *** 1/2 out of *****

Review: There's a whole lot to admire about Wes Anderson's latest film, The Darjeeling Limited, but I still found myself liking it a bit less than most of his previous films, and as such, am having a rather difficult time writing this damned review. It's ...

Pros: Anderson's visuals, The Soundtrack, Good Performances

Cons: Not Wes Anderson's best film, Slow Beginning

The Bottom Line: Good for fans of the road trip movie as well as Wes Anderson's Fans but the general public might be underwhelmed especially by the film's lack of major comedic moments.
