It just figures that I catch the best movie I’ve seen all year on the last damn day of 2009!
I’m not a huge Wes Anderson fan, but this movie charmed the hell out of me – it’s smart, wryly funny, and understated but with more than a few laugh-out-loud moments. If you get a chance, see this movie before it leaves the theaters.
The only downside tonight was that we went to an early show. Too many parents thinking that Fox is a children’s movie brought youngsters who soon became bored and loud. I spent half the film transported by the sheer artistry of the actors, animators and painters, and the other half thinking, “Shut the fuck up, Junior – I’m trying to enjoy the Clooney!”
