BrianSez's Review

Summary - Great 4.0

Wes Anderson’s creativity shines once again at the Grand Budapest Hotel. I think it is his best so far. Budapest is a story with the intricacies and unlikelihood of a Rube Goldberg concoction and old-school slapstick humor reminiscent of comedies made in the 30’s and 40’s. It will bring a consistent smile to your face, only to be interrupted with bursts of LOL moments. Besides the quirky and inventive sets, the cast acts like a well coached team moving in unison, albeit Ralph Fiennes and Tony Revolori do most of the heavy lifting. Bottom line is that you should not miss this film.

Acting - Great 4.0

In the spirit of my laziness, I’m not going to go through the entire cast. Suffice it to say – once you see all the names, your expectations will skyrocket – and they will be met!. Regarding Ralph Fiennes – his bisexual perfectionist butler persona deserves major kudos, and tony Revolori is as good as a side-kick as you’ll ever see.

Film - Great 4.0

Edge - Risqué 2.0

Reality - Surreal 2.5
