Very beautiful movie visually! The story couldn't be underestimated as well tho. Hilariously funny. Wes Anderson definitely just made a mark!

The film content is very good the humor very intelligent the photography aside from the special effects must say plenty of them, the cinematography it so simetrical that is not even funny there is not one single diagonal frame or in perspective , I really enjoyed this film given the attention to every single detail . A linear film from beginning to end , it ends where it begins and yet tells the story from the journalist point of view that interacts with the main character.

This movie is full of charm . it feels like a nice old black and white movie but done modern style but with all that charming humour and and english feel to it. i really liked it. great cast, it looks amazing and the lead actor was so good like a young david niven. The split screen sections while i understand the motive i could of done without it. but if you want to watch a very nice movie with good subtle humour and charm then this is perfect.

Okay The grand Budapest hotel well what can I say... brilliant. THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL recounts the adventures of Gustave H, a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars, and Zero Moustafa, the lobby boy who becomes his most trusted friend. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting and the battle for an enormous family fortune. This movie is brilliant just brilliant, The directing is fantastic and all of the cast was great and yes there where some famous actors that was not on screen that long but there where still brilliant.

One of Anderson's better films, but not quite his best. It has all of the Anderson tropes, bright colors, a retro feel, models that clearly look like models. The most grating part of this film, and what cost it a half-star is a the dialogue, specifically Ralph Fiennes'. I understand that the wanted to show the beauty of language, but it was too much. The story itself was brilliant. Boy with Apple will forever live in my memory. Ultimately it didn't pass the watch test. The watch test asks the question, "did I look at my watch during the film?" So, it wasn't quite as good as it could've been, but a must-see nonetheless.
