There's a slightly darker edge to The Grand Budapest Hotel than Anderson's previous efforts.January 02, 2015
The mannered, madcap proceedings are often delightful, occasionally silly, and here and there, gruesome and/or heartbreaking.March 22, 2014
The movie is a flume ride through the imagination of one of the most creative minds making movies today, and the pleasure curls your toes. Also, be ready to crave some macaroons.June 21, 2016
In The Grand Budapest Hotel we can sense both a progression and summarizing of the entire Wes Anderson canon.March 10, 2017
As usual, it's beautifully set-designed, impeccably scored and acted with all the emotion of Hannibal Lecter on a bender.January 02, 2015
"The Grand Budapest Hotel" is not his grandest work yet, but it is one worth an extended stay.January 02, 2015
I like Anderson when he's making movies about childhood -- "Rushmore," or "Fantastic Mr. Fox" -- but when he ventures into the realm of adulthood, he seems out of his jurisdiction.February 28, 2017
It's one to lose yourself in.June 16, 2016
Wes Anderson makes great kid movies. He had me at 'Moonrise Kingdom' and 'Fantastic Mr. Fox.' Grown-up movie-wise, Wes's weird world makes this reviewer weary.January 02, 2015
Anderson's films are too precious for some, but for those of us willing to lose ourselves in them, they're a delight. "The Grand Budapest Hotel" is no different, except that he has added a hint of gravitas to the mix, improving the recipe.June 18, 2016
Just plain fun, full of the filmmaker's signature flourishes and curlicues, worked out with skill and finesse.January 02, 2015
Grand isn't good enough a word for this Budapest Hotel. Great is more like it.
