Another example of Wes Andersons really unique and odd sense of humor. A great cast, with Gene Hackman probably giving the funniest performance of his life creating one of the most unique characters of film history, and wonderfully strange way of storytelling make this enjoyable,...( read more)

Gene Hackman really steals the show in this great film. It's probably Anderson's weakest film to date as it does meander towards the end, but its still brilliant. Anderson knows how to get the best out of his cast!

I like the performances and some of the off kilter humor, but I think Anderson is a bit over estimated.

Wes Anderson has a unique (but refreshing) way of telling a story, all the characters are rich and unforgettable, even the support cast shine

Wes Anderson never fails to entertain and I think this is one of his best. The quirky, eccentric characters are highly enjoyable.

Always love Wes Anderson's Stylization of his films.
The script is amazing and Luke Wilson is superb.
Gene Hackman gives a great and effortlessly artful perfomance.
Critic Reviews
Apart from Hackman, the actors look more trapped by Anderson's rigid framing, color scheme, and enforced deadpan. full review
A rich mixture of sadness, comfort and joy. full review
It's proof that Anderson and his writing partner, the actor Owen Wilson, have a gift of cockeyed genius. full review
That it works is due to director Wes Anderson, who has made something eccentric and hilarious that can suddenly -- or maybe not for hours or even days later -- choke you up with emotion. full review
The film grows on you, but more substance and less calculated quirks would have been a royal treat. full review
Rushmore director Wes Anderson is more interested in his own precocity than he is in his characters. full review
At once endearing and unbearably show-offy, it seems to be the product of a sensibility formed by age-inappropriate reading: a childhood spent sneaking into the grown-up fiction section of the library. full review
