Ratings and reviews

Pretentious junk. Grand Budapest Hotel was fabulous, but the rest of his films are just awful. This is a vacuous, pretentious waste of 100 minutes of your life. Dull story, zero character development, poor sound track, just an empty waste of time. I'm sure it will be loved by those who know no better, but think it's "art".

Its a story about a boy and his dog. But with a an Anderson twist. This sweet tale about a boy looking for his dog is beautiful yet has action and a plotted conspiracy. Really enjoyed it, if you enjoy Anderson's movie's I'm sure you will enjoy this.

Great film with a stellar cast and animation. If you enjoyed Wes' Fantastic Mr Fox, you will surely love this too and if you didn't...you may still like it.
