Right from the beginning as the film opens with a yodel, you can tell that this film is something special. Wes Anderson must be one of the most stylish directors out there and his storytelling ability is superb. From his use of miniatures for wide shots, to the colorful costumes and ornate sets, Anderson gives this triumphantly fun adventure his distinctive signature stamp. He presents an intriguing whodunnit that builds layers of mystery in a unique world of his own creation.
Ralph Fiennes is perfectly cast as the mustachioed concierge. He delivers Anderson's trademark fast-paced, witty humor effortlessly. Newcomer Tony Revolori shines as the dutiful young lobby boy Zero among a fantastic ensemble cast. This movie has serious Oscar potential. Maybe Wes Anderson will even land his first nomination for Best Picture.
