act 1 of this movie had real potential and could have gone in many directions. but by the time it came to act three, the film just completely lost the plot. the main message of this movie is the problem that is economic disparity, and it’s hard to miss because every time a metaphor is made, the plot completely derails to ENSURE that the watcher understands the reference; this was unnecessary and threw me off big time; i was constantly forgetting what the hell was going on at all times. while the movie discusses prevalent topics, i find that it only skims the surface on provoking an actual enlightening discussion.  visually, the movie had a beautiful color scheme and it was quite hysterical at times. though if you don’t like vomit humor, you won’t like this movie.

this movie has some of the greatest shots i have seen in my life, not to mention that the color scheme is the coolest damn color scheme i’ve seen (ofcourse it does its we anderson). unfortunately though, i just found the plot of this movie disinteresting. the end it sweet and a little sorrowful; i appreciate its playful, and graceful, display of mocking history; the jokes are the perfect amount of edgy, but i think that this movie isn’t anything to rave about. I am curious if this film would have done so good if wes andersons name was not on it.

as a unicorn ENTHUSIAST, this movie was ridiculous and i don’t like the portrayal of my spirit animal, k? it gets a bonus point though because at least somebodyis trying to keep unicorns in the media. there’s no such thing as bad press i guess

The scene where Jane and Travis's face's perfectly line up in the one-way mirror is one of my favorite images in cinema history. This film is slow moving but so intelligent; the dialogue between Jane and Travis feels so fragile that it projects an effect through the screen that leaves the viewer SHATTERED. Hunter is the cutest little 80's boy and exactly what I want in my own child one day. love love love
