    Is this a top 5 script (based on films I have seen)? Maybe so. It is so clever and unique how this family pulls everything off. I did not feel any plot holes. Does a good job of paralleling the separation of class in society too.

    Robert Pattinson masterclass. Mark Ruffalo was hilarious. It had life but fell flat. Still worth a watch though. Couple funny moments

    Your hedonistic actions will have consequences, but the purest people are the ones who will stand out. The first half was an exhilarating watch, the third quarter was more humorous and chaotic, then the 4th quarter was the hangover feeling. The ending was a curveball, but actually helped it land the plane.

    I am in love with Mikey Madison.

    An awesome rewatch. I counted 9 total aspect ratio switches (5 distinct ones). It is an excellent display of camera work and set design. Then you add on this enigma of a character played by Ralph Fiennes, just a great human and inspiring too. If I could quote a poem out of nowhere then I would. Stacked cast as usual in Wes Anderson movies. Amazing life quotes as well. An amazing script.
