Review : Darjeeling Limited

To make this easy if you dig Wes Anderson flicks then you are undoubtedly going to dig this one. However the odd dialog and slow pace make it hard to recommend to most people. While I certainly liked The Life Aquatic much better because of the more humorous plot and awesome soundtrack, this movie was enjoyable and short. (Tiff liked this better than Life Aquatic). There is really no point to the film and there certainly is no climax, its more of a brothers coming to age and dealing with the death of their father. I was hoping for more hi jinks on the train but I guess it wouldn't fit into the tone.

Also it gets bonus points because of the short film in the beginning you get to see quite a bit of Natalie Portman's bare ass ( even though her body is all bruised up for no apparent reason, which kinda ruined it for me).
