Filmgoers should be thankful for the amount of work Anderson is prepared to do to fill each shot and scene with as much pleasure as possible. Here, the theme seems to be that civilisation may be a veneer, but when it crumbles we are likely left with something much worse, and that, once what took centuries to build is gone, to look back at it, even just a few years or decades later, is to look into a lost realm that can serve only to measure the distance we have, in most respects, fallen.

Residing firmly in the upper tier of Anderson's canon, "The Grand Budapest Hotel" is littered with both visual gags and delicious tongue-in-cheek dialogue. Planimetric compositions often overloaded past their natural breaking point, great references to both the history of cinema in general and Anderson's own work in particular and a number of delicious sequences (the secret society of concierges, Joppling chasing Kovacs, the shoot-out in the hotel etc.) make this a spectacular spectacle.

This may be Wes Anderson's best piece of work to date! The Grand Budapest Hotel, as mean-spirited as it tries to be, it manages to balance out pure watchability with it's impressive acting, great writing, really good directing, and all of the fake mustaches. Good production (as usual) and a weird, good feel. My favorite part? Probably the music. I personally liked Willem Dafoe's character but they are all good. Worth the watch for sure! Especially if you love film in general.

When I buy a ticket for an Anderson-film, I buy a ticket for another world. But somewhere, something went wrong. I can't tell whether the problem lies with me, or with the film. The style, flair, acting are all present, and it has an original script. So why can't I become a part of this world? There is something about these characters that refuse my involvement. Wes Anderson might have overdone himself.

There is a huge amount of fun to be had here. The glorious set design is captured by some wonderful camerawork, and the world that has been created is peopled with some wonderfully-realised characters. Fiennes steals the show, but the ensemble players are very effective, and newcomer Revolori does a great job. The tone feels somewhat different to some of Anderson's other work I have seen recently, perhaps not as whimsical, but it still oozes charm. Recommended.

A story of vile behavior juxtaposed to the apex of human civility and courtship, brought to you full frame in precise symmetry, with the charming consistency that Wes Anderson leaves as his trademark. A nursery rhyme of murder, deceit and confections if you will.

The world building alone is incredible. Like all of Anderson's movies, it's heavy on dry wit with many instances of high absurdity measured with perfect moments of emotional impact. His storytelling methods have grown exponentially and this may be his most ambitious yet. It's the kind of movie fans of his will want to savour and live in long after it's finished.

The power of Anderson's best films -- Rushmore, Tenenbaums -- came partly from the tension between his intricate, painstakingly composed aesthetic and a roaring current of anguish and regret residing, raw, just below the surface. As his films become more clockwork in their plotting and Anderson enjoys more control over his aesthetic, I'm finding it harder and harder to tap into that reservoir of emotion. TGBH is a well-crafted ship in a bottle: immaculate, impressive, and ultimately inaccessible.

Without doubt the best story Anderson has made and it's a visual beast, yet I was a bit disappointed to see the quirky auteur steer away a bit from the genuine heart and humanity he tried to bring to the forefront in "Moonrise Kingdom" back to the detached wit that sometimes irritated me about his earlier works. Regardless, Gustave and Moustafa are both excellent characters and the central themes of manners and the influence of other people on us is explored very well.

While many films cosset the audience with a veil, Anderson rejects reality at every waking moment. His locales are elaborate sets, stages, paintings, backdrops, right angles and hard lines. He embraces the unreal nature of the medium, and by doing so paints a picture as intricate and marvelous as Van Gogh or Monet.

Jesus Haploid Christ, is -everyone- & their idiomatic brother in this? One of WA's finest achievements, quite appropriately set during a fantastical combo of WWs, but particularly salient is WWI-- seemingly 'the end of history,' even as both the illumination of the Oct. Rev. & space exploration, & also the horror of the atom bomb & rise of fascism, were yet to come. [refers you to user djross for the end of my argument, both cos I am lazy as shit & his reading is pretty much the same as my own].

You expect the all-too familiar patented whimsy and artistic idiosyncrasy and you marvel just the same. Anderson shows no signs of veering away from his distinctive style, nor should he. I, for one, have never grown tired of his elaborately gorgeous set-pieces or of his characters' absurd hijinks. All these are impressive enough but what tips TGBH over to greatness is its vein of understated sadness and lurking tragedy buried beneath, which gives it its beating heart.

Anderson is a dedicated artist. His films are like moving oil paintings and everything you get to see is insanely gorgeous. GBH may be his most mature film yet, his darkest and most violent as well. There are flairs of Tarantino scattered about, but the effect is terrific. Fiennes is a perfect fit for this universe and a great lead for this mind-blowing ensemble cast. Of course the dialogue is fascinating and the eccentric visual touches are characteristic of an Anderson film; twee made for me.

It's about art, and war, and violence, and connection. Mostly connection, I guess. It's about life. And legacy. And the importance of storytelling to keep legacies alive. It's also a very funny war picture spoof, and a surprisingly moving surrogate father-son tale, and an often-hilarious character piece. Mostly it's about connection, though. It's a Wes Anderson movie, is what it is. His best since TENENBAUMS.

It's easily one of my favorite movies I've seen. Its stylistically beautiful, the gags are spot on, the characters are shallow on the surface but become deep through what they do and the genius of Andersons editing which creates personality out of visual queues. It's a beautiful story, told through two perspectives, Told first at the beginning by the writer of a novel from his account of the story an aging lonely hotel owner told him over dinner one night. Its wondrous, poignant and inspiring.

This really was just wonderful. The whole film rips along at a rapid pace; full of Anderson's precision whimsy and merticulos absurdity, perhaps even more so than many of his previous efforts. This sits closer to 'Mr Fox' rather than 'Darjeeling' for example. The supurb Fiennes is an amazing piece of casting, and Desplat's musical score is a joy. Funny, touching and punctilious scenes flow briskly one after the other demanding that multiple viewings will be required.

Minor complaints: Dafoe looks like he's auditioning for the role of Dick Dasterdly. Tilda is on the same old age makeup kick as Guy Pearce in Prometheus where I assume they just forget to show us the young scenes, or something? This is highly entertaining and keeps a frenetic pace but didn't quite grab me by the feelings like some of his other films have. Set design is immaculate and alone warrants a viewing. Watched in prep of a Top 7 screen draft I hosted with friends. You should try one too.

Probably Anderson's most charming, surprising film. In most ways it's his best: it's funnier, better written, more original, gorgeous, and simply fuller than the usual fan favorites. The quick pace and engaging plot distract from his his typically obnoxious quirks like thinly drawn characters and tiresome irony, and touches like the nesting framing devices and Fiennes pitch-perfect acting push it into the stratosphere. Coming from someone perpetually skeptical of Anderson, this is a great film.

A story-within-a-story-within-a-film, functioning as an ode to storytelling and its ability to make sense of and shape shared experience into something more than just a recitation of historical events - as well as its limitations, of which the distinctly un-romantic ending, flatly conveyed by Zero, is a reminder. I'm really digging how Anderson's diorama aesthetic is pushing itself further with each film, and I enjoyed this as much as anything of his I've yet seen.

Can a naughty monkey appreciate the subtleties of a fine earl grey? I suppose one could if it had never eaten a banana. But once the sweetness of the banana is known, the earl grey becomes a brown liquid that reminds the monkey that at that exact moment, he's not eating a banana.

Yet another beautiful, detailed world is meticulously crafted and captured at a stellar pace by the Anderson camp. Ralph Fiennes is wonderful as Gustave, and there are plenty of awesome cameos sprinkled about (a bald Harvey Keitel being my personal favorite). Visually, it's precise, and the dialogue, consistently witty. Undeniably Anderson.

Sensational cinematography! The consequently symmetric framing opens up new camera perspectives and creates beautiful new views of standards such as the shootout scene. Wes Anderson revives and cleverly updates the slapstick humor of the silent movie era which (with absolutely no exception) his actors perform so brilliantly and so well timed that a cheshire cat sized grin will persistently stick to your face until the curtains close to that wild balalaika orchestra.

The visuals are so remarkably entrancing and vibrantly varied here (hotels, prisons, mansions, and mountaintops) that you find yourself as excited to see what the next scene looks like as much as what happens in it-and that's not to say the writing is sub-par: Within a cute 4-tiered narrative, a wild and wacky plot of murder, money, and escape takes place with plenty of quirky characters (Fiennes is fantastic) and well-placed bits of goofiness and expletives that break up the dazzling dialogue.

A lot of fun. The amount of affectation and twee-ness in Wes Anderson's films though, and just his stylings in general, often leave me struggling to engage emotionally and feeling like his characters are robbed of the sympathy they deserve, and this film is no different in that regard. Ralph Fiennes is incredible here.

A broad range of A-list actors on a lovely symmetrical and colorful backdrop, that must seem rather exotic if you've never stumbled drunkenly about in the city center of Prague. And boy have I done just that! Also in Budapest. And Warsaw. You should go to Eastern Europe. Beer is really cheap there. But I digress. Where was I? Oh yeah: it's also rather whimsy and failed to engage me in any of the characters. Go to Vienna as well. You can take the boat to Bratislava from there.

Diverting, but Anderson's ornate style and precious tone deprives the proceedings of the gravity the somber subject matter seems to call for. The final effect is insensitive, even inhuman and trivializing, his characters coming to resemble prettily painted baubles bouncing around in an elaborate, whirring colored pinball machine. Their deaths have about as much impact as Wile E. Coyote falling off a cliff. Anderson parodies Ophuls and a lot of very good art but without understanding it.

I love the sets that Anderson creates, and he doesn't let up with this one. The intricacy and detail put into every corner of the frame is that of an auteur; a man who knows what he wants his film to look like. Gustave and Zero were great leading characters and are full of all the Anderson tropes; funny, lucky, MacGyver-like, and quirky. That said, the film felt almost "too" Wes Anderson-like. It combined all the elements of his previous films that help define them and it was simply too much.

Not quite in Wes Anderson's top tier for me - reserved only for Moonrise Kingdom and Tenenbaums for now - but it comes real close. A wickedly funny, joyously watchable Russian doll of a story, packed with wonderful performances and some of the most beautiful cinematography ever committed to film. Every last shot, last frame, is finely honed and meticulously coloured; it's 100 minutes of flip-book photography, and every snap's a keeper.

(after repeat viewings) About as skillfully realized as Anderson's craft is ever going to be, boasting plenty of goofball antics and stunningly choreographed cinematography. I can imagine his studiously deadpan style leaving some viewers cold, though his distinct offbeat approach has most definitely matured in accommodating a more fully developed storyline. A most enjoyable film and one of the year's highlights so far.

I like the nice script, the acting and the colour used in all the scenes (and the placement of the carmera). The one thing about all the Wes Anderson movies is that it has some kind of hard to describe 'forced' feeling about it. It's like the humor is kind of corky.. I'll explain: I'm Dutch and we think Belgian humor is pretty weird.. we do understand it, but it's just a little 'light'. American humor is pretty straight forward in your face, but the humor in this movie isnt like that... :P

The vision, the acting, the style AND the story (albeit to be honest it's the thinnest on the latest and adding in a speck of a true drama would near it close to perfection). I think it's as much a pleasure for a viewer as it was for everybody involved in its creation (especially the actors, it almost radiates from them). The thing is, it's just utterly delightful to witness a master at his work.

Easily my favorite Wes Anderson flick yet. I could have watched the concierge and his lobby boy charm their way through these beautiful sets for another ten hours.

Very cute and charming. Different from any other films. It made me really wish I was more English literate to understand fully how they chose words and their poetry. The colors on screen were cute! Creme yellow and blue!

the most exquisite romp of all time... but essentially a romp. the best color I've ever seen in a film. I miss Anderson's personal stories but there is no denying this was a fantastic film.

Another fun Wes Anderson film littered with cameos, beautiful shots and great set design. Ralph Fiennes is fantastic as M. Gustave.

Though I'm not a fan of Anderson's visual style, the story here was really fun. Mostly, though, I just really loved Ralph Fiennes. For those who enjoy Anderson's style, this would be nearly perfect.

The Grand Budapest is one of my favourite films of 2014 and it's quite possibly Wes Anderson's finest work to date also. The impeccable and meticulous attention to detail makes this one of the most fascinating pieces of filmmaking I can recall. Every single frame could beautifully be hung on a wall in its own right. Ralph Fiennes hilariously gives another outstanding performance and also newcomer Anthony Quinonez, Jeff Goldblum & Willem Dafoe are the standouts of an incredible supporting cast.

Wes Anderson keeps getting better. Anderson has, with this film, firmly cemented himself as an all-time great director.

Fucking Wes Anderson is dropping F bombs fuck yeah. This movie was so Wes Anderson I thought it was a parody. It's also his best movie since Tenenbaums. The cast is great and they even kill Tilda Swinton super early so you don't have to look at her bony ass all movie, which is nice. Adrien Brody should be forced to wear stache at all times, just a great look. I thought I was supposed to be a fucking faggot? You are, but you're a bisexual.

Wes Anderson again at his best. All the usual staples of his films all done a little differently: his typical visual style (yet exploring a Western European feel this time), wonderful ensemble cast (with some nice new faces). A wonderful performance by Ralph Fiennes whom we don't get to see enough of in my opinion. I would say that this film covers no new ground really, but since I love all of his films, I don't really mind.

Better than I expected! Wes Anderson is hit and miss for me, but this one was really great. Loved the filmography, especially the set design. The acting and writing was fantastic as well.

Maybe it seems over the top at times, but it never feels like it's anything but humor done in good taste. The whole film is beautifully executed, with a sense of whimsy that pervades every aspect of the film, from the acting to the cinematography.

Take a whole host of A List actors, including an absolutely razor sharp Ralph Feinnes. Stir vigourously into a crazy plot about a Will, and season with murder, art theft, nonspecific warfare and subterfuge. Add plenty of really witty dialogue, surreal set pieces and fine comedic moments. Place mixture in a rambling "communist era" ostentatious hotel, and allow to smoulder for 100 minutes. TGBH is a delightfully packaged story that is as perfectly constructed as its famous Mendl chocolates.

All the usual Wes Anderson goodies are on display. This time, with Ralph Fiennes at the helm, the movie unravels like a fine chocolate truffle. It doesn't disappoint.

While watching this movie I remember thinking how glad I was that Wes Anderson is just... around. I wish there were more people like him making movies in their own little Universes without getting all tied up with logic and reality and how other people make movies. I can think of maybe... 5 other living filmmakers who isolate themselves like this, but I wish they all did.

Stylistically similar to the majority of Wes Anderson's other films. The narrative isn't particularly riveting or compelling. The very subtle charms and quirks of this film, the it's characters, and settings make it easy to love. Also, as usual, the casting is absolutely perfect. One of my favorites by Wes Anderson...

The framing story is completely superfluous and I don't think Anderson's style feels as magical to me anymore, but the film still won me over. A lot of amusing moments and characters and a fun story go a long way, and Anderson's visual style still has its charms.

Viciously mean spirited and sometimes grisly Anderson film. Still that same brilliant writing and humor with the same silly set pieces and dated look.

Anderson's follow-up to MK is another hipster-adored baroque tale of love and loneliness. With the most grandiloquent set-pieces of the auteur's career, it also marks his return to quirk, depressing family stories, as Fiennes, the concierge, tries to claim a picture from one of his most beloved clients/affairs, who left it for him in her testament, and gets trapped, along with his messenger/protégé/future heir, in a path of violence by the old lady's family (or Adrien Brody, the evil son).

Between this and Moonrise Kingdom, I think Anderson's at the top of his game (though I will say I personally prefer the latter). He's assembled another brilliant cast, with Fiennes giving one of my favourite performances I've ever seen from him. The trademark quirkiness, deadpan humour, colours, camera movements, symmetry - all there. I liked it a lot. I did find it a little lacking in character. I just didn't relate to or feel as invested in the characters as I have done in his other films.
