Audience Reviews

Andy K One of Wes Anderson's best films. The entire cast is wonderful. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/06/24 Full Review Audience Member By far one of my favorites of Wes Anderson. The deadpan, almost matter-of-fact delivery of each line made moments where emotions were tense really stand through. Fantastic narrative, star-studded cast, witty humor and depth all work together to make this movie truly memorable.The Royal Tenenbaums, written by Wes Anderson and Owen Wilson, as well as directed by Anderson, follows the lives of the eponymous Tenembaum family. The family consists of an adopted daughter (something mentioned repeatedly throughout the film and what turns out to be a major plot catalyst), two complicated sons, an abarrent mother, and an estranged father. Each character is struggling with something, from abandonment to addictions to depression to mourning, to, well, confusing feelings towards a certain family member. These struggles, though internal, are shown to affect the lives of those around the Tenembaums in more ways than one as the viewer a marriage fall apart, an attempted suicide, a psychotic break, a false medical emergency, and a bender. I'd absolutely recommend to anyone, but especially those who like Fantastic Mr. Fox, Whiplash, Beautiful Boy, and Little Miss Sunshine. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/31/24 Full Review Tom F Much of this has aged terribly, but in the most entertaining way. I find Wes Anderson’s films highly watchable, perhaps you won’t, that’s cool. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/07/24 Full Review Lisa M I fell asleep. It’s not horrible but quite boring. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/19/24 Full Review Victor M Gran desarrollo de cada personaje y como se interconectan. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/28/24 Full Review Vivianne S I love this movie like I LOVE it. Sadly, as a kid raised on the internet, my attention span is quite short and I have trouble watching a movie in one go. But this film enchanted me so much I just had to watch it all through. It is at the same time very real and so whimsical, heavy yet almost fantasy-like. The soundtrack was an absolute banger and it just fitted perfectly with the vibe of the overall movie. I don't know what else to say except this is a perfect movie.(except for the incest) Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/26/24 Full Review Read all reviews
