This was a very weird film. I don’t have a lot to say about this film as I didn’t like it very much. I suppose you have to be a Wes Anderson (director) fan to enjoy this film. It was star-studded but the stars didn’t seem to be properly utilized. The film had a chance to be good if they would have turned it into more of a Huckleberry Finn type film, which I think is what it was shooting for. But in the end that’s not what we got. I don’t know what we got that’s the problem. I didn’t get it. I guess I have to be more into the directing or acting or more into film criticisms but it just wasn’t for me. How anyone could include this film in their top films of 2012 is beyond me.
