Unlike a few of the more recent Wes Anderson films, I thought this had more of a substantial story to underpin the antics as it follow the quite literally death-defying activities of entrepreneur “Korda” (Benicio del Toro). Now he’s made his squillions somewhat disreputably and has frequently been the target of assassins, so after this latest attempt sees him face down in the desert, he decides it’s time to make his will.

However, it's …

I absolutely adored this film; I think it was brilliantly done. I love Wes Anderson movies, and true to his style, this film was filled with drama and some cheeky flair. I’m not quite sure what skill it takes for an actor to sit there with basically one expression throughout the entire film, yet convey a million things without saying a word. Whatever that skill is, it’s truly hypnotising, and this film showcased it perfectly. All the actors and actresses in this world were simply stunning an…
