The film starts pretty good then loses some of its drive. It managed to ship around being a pseudo-deep intellectual movie by a hair's breadth - I can't watch these anymore - I'm too old for liking too artsy movies.

After all: the script is unique and I enjoyed watching the movie. A solid ★★★.

The movie had it's charme in the eighties and some if it still carries over. So some parts of the movie receive ★★★★★ but others simply don't.

Probably one of the best cinematic experiences in 2012. Maybe it even has the stuff to be one of my all-time favorits – but only time and some 'rewatching' will tell.

I love how the movie played with ethnicity, good and bad, language evolution, etc. Great stuff.

I love Wes Anderson movies, this one was no exception.
