Wes anderson french dispatch reviews movie#

Anderson also uses animation in this film for select scenes, and I was a big fan of this. Bravo to the whole cast on making every amount of screen time special. No matter the size of the role, people will make themselves available. Anderson is a filmmaker that you can tell everyone wants to work with at some point. One strong area that Anderson films always have going for them is the strong acting. This threw off the pacing of the film for me, which dragged at times. I found myself wanting more from certain segments and less from others. Some get more attention than others it happens with storytelling.

When you have a movie with multiple stories involved it’s very hard to have them all be at a high level. With this film, you have four stories connected by Bill Murray and his French Dispatch Magazine. Fox, Rushmore (How could I not have Rushmore on my Rushmore?) Wes Anderson Rushmore! The Grand Budapest Hotel, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, Fantastic Mr. Is The French Dispatch a bad film if it’s one of Anderson’s weaker films? Wes Anderson is like Pixar, even at their weakest, they are still presenting high-quality storytelling. I mentioned in The Short that this is Anderson’s most visually creative film, but not his best overall. I look forward to his films because I’m excited to see his art direction, set changes, writing, and in-camera wizardry. Not many filmmakers have this unique style that when you see it, you know their signature. The Long! A Wes Anderson flick is one that you know is his immediately.
