Movie Review: Grand Budapest Hotel

I saw a bunch of movies over my plane ride to Ukraine:




Compliments
1) If you like Wes Anderson, it is not his best, but it is still pretty good.
2) Cast is AMAZING!!!
3) Art Direction - THE BEST
4) Ralph Fiennes's performance

Needs Improvement
1) Under-Utilized characters (see cast)
2) chase movies kind of annoying after a while
3) miscast the two younger characters (weak)
4) Wes Anderson places obscene material into his movies.  It is supposed to be a clever ploy at humor i.e. replacing the portrait of boy with apple.  But instead it is disruptive and makes us question his judgment.

I still enjoyed it and recommend it.

Its not for kids which is sad because two child actors are in it.



What is your favorite Ralph Fiennes movie?
