Movie Review by B Movie Ben

October 16th, 2007

If we f*ck I'm gonna feel like sh*t tomorrow.

I am afraid to see the The Darjeeling Limited. I cannot stand Owen Wilson, and now that I have seen Jason Schwartzman, and know that certain friends think he is something special, I don't know what to do. There are also those who think that you have to "get" Anderson, or you are some ignorant rube.

This short film did not make me want to check out Wes Anderson's new film. I found Schwartzman to be particularly obnoxious and need to explore further before I make a commitment. I will watch Rushmore and Shopgirl, and maybe The Royal Tenenbaums again this week before I commit. That ought to give me enough Swartnman and Anderson to determine whether I "get it," or am just a rube.

Of course, Portman fans will watch to see her nude. No, she doesn't have a body double standing in as she did in Goya's Ghosts.

I do, however, like the idea of shorts as a prelude instead of trailers. More should explore this.

I am a total rube, I guess.

I would not say that, only repeating what some others have said.

I was mainly agreeing with you. Both on what others would have said, and my own personal opinion of Anderson's movies.

There are even some that say The Royal Tennebaums was his last original movie, and that he is just copying himself now. Like I said, I will do some investigating this weekend.
