I am a huge fan of Wes Anderson, and have religiously been to see all his previous films, however, he's way off the target with this self-indulgent, meandering tripe. I have rarely been as bored by a film that seems to be going nowhere and have no point. You can talk of great sets, scenery, and quirky performances, but without the fundamentals, this is a sad folly. Perhaps it's got something to do with his co-writers this time around, and the lack of a Mark Mothersbaugh inspired soundtrack, but I'm hoping he's back to form with his next project, I like his work too much to give up.
