Grand Budapest Hotel Review: Push Your Boundaries With This Quirky and Satisfying Comedy

The Grand Budapest Hotel Review By: Matt Cummings The refreshingly wacky Grand Budapest Hotel celebrates uniqueness in typical Wes Anderson style. We here at SJF do our best to recommend films that you'll enjoy - we think those that bill themselves as 'important' are mostly meant to be ignored, while those hidden gems require a bit of digging and a willingness to push your boundaries. Director Wes Anderson scored big on our 2012 Best-Of list with Moonrise Kingdom , due entirely to its quirkiness and beautifully-demented environment. We didn't feel that way about Bottle Rocket  and we outright disliked Fantastic Mr. Fox ; but with The Grand Budapest Hotel , Anderson scores with a funny yet unconventional work that's certainly not mainstream. Set mainly in the 1930's fictional fascist world of the European Republic of Zubrowka, we are introduced to the once-storied The Grand Budapest Hotel, a place of wonder where the rich can escape their worries...

Moonrise Kingdom Blu-Ray Review. One Of The Best Films Of The Year

Moonrise Kingdom Blu-Ray Review By: MattInRC Make sure to follow MattInRC on twitter for all his reviews. Moonrise Kingdom is uniquely quirky, impressively captivating, and one of best the films of the year as it arrives for its Blu-ray release. To those outside of the indie movie clique, it might look as though the work of Wes Anderson represents no more than series of boring conversations about...well...nothing at all. Locked in a perpetual episode of Seinfeld, in which his characters essentially do nothing, Anderson's work is quintessential eye candy: extreme closeups and other unique camera angles mix with inventive storytelling that's deeply-layered and sometimes even bordering on self-parody. But it's his commitment to those quirky characters that also rules the days. His newest work, Moonrise Kingdom , is Anderson at his best, wrapping an intelligent script around a rich visual experience that plays very well on Blu-ray. The Movie - 5/5 The ...

Moonrise Kingdom Movie Review One Of The Best Films Of The Year

Moonrise Kingdom Movie Review By: Matt C Moonrise Kingdom is uniquely quirky, captivating, and one of best the films of the year. The central theme to Moonrise Kingdom is the danger inherent in labeling certain elements of society as strange or even dangerous without looking a little deeper. Yet the film is so much more than a simple soapbox statement: it's genuinely funny, incredibly honest about itself, existing in a world that feels both familiar and a little off center, much like its main characters. Set among the pine and maple trees on a fictitious 1965 New England island called New Penzance, two children ( Kara Hayward and Jared Gilman ) decide to run away, rejecting the small-town labels they've been given, and touching off a manhunt by the police and local scout master. The journey is the truly funny part, immersing the audience in a perfect mixture of droll humor and slapstick, starting with our Narrator ( Bob Balaban , 2010) as he lists off the nature of the i...

MOONRISE KINGDOM Review By: RAMA

MOONRISE KINGDOM Review By: RAMA Here is RAMA's Review for the film. Did he fall in love with the movie? Wes Anderson’s latest yellow toned presentation, MOONRISE KINGDOM , is one of the most adorable films I’ve ever seen. Two very young and very naive lovebirds out on an adventure, against all odds, defying those who oppose, taking their chances in the wilderness. The young actors, Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward give bold performances and the big movie stars, Bruce Willis, Edward Norton , Tilda Swinton, Bill Murray, Frances McDormand, Jason Schwartzman, Harvey Keitel , in supporting roles, help those two young actors achieve the best out of their characters and their funny little love story. Something about teens encountering romance for the first time that’s irresistible and Anderson has managed to successfully captured that by emphasizing curiosity and without losing innocence… Set on an island off the coast of New England in the summer of 1965, MOONRISE KINGDOM ...

Marc Webb To Spin A Web On Spider-Man Reboot?

Marc Webb To Spin A Web On Spider-Man Reboot? Marc Webb, the (500) Days Of Summer director, has climbed to the top of the Sony Pictures' list to rebirth the Spider-Man franchise. While the studio has a wish list of star directors like James Cameron, David Fincher, and Wes Anderson, the emergence of Webb as director comes as a huge surprise. But Mike Fleming's sources tell him Webb met about the Spidey reboot with the pic's producers and executives looking to get the picture into production later this year for a Summer 2012 release. Why will the pic take so long? Because it's likely to be shot in 3-D, and Sony Pictures plans to make an announcement about that "at the appropriate time". Though he has the perfect name for the job, Webb has no prior superhero experience. (Hey, I saw Darkman and that was more of a science experiment that a superhero.) Then again, neither did Sam Raimi. And Chris Nolan was the director of Memento when he signed on for Batman Begins...
