Review of Isle of Dogs (2018) by Rebecca31 — 29 Mar 2018

Wes Anderson has done it again, Isle of Dogs is an absolute gem. From start to finish I loved every minute of Isle of Dogs. Stop motion brought to a new level, the attention to detail is simply wonderful. Directed by Wes Anderson, you know you're going to get an off-beat comedy and the laughs just keep on coming. Filled with a star-studded cast, I could list them all but we'd be here all day. Visually stunning and immensely enjoyable.

Set in Japan, Isle of Dogs tells the story of 12-year-old Atari Kobayashi and his quest to find his lost dog, Spots. After a serious case of dog flu every single dog has been exiled to trash island to live out the remainder of their lives. Abandoned by their masters and left to die. With the help of a pack of dogs on trash island Atari embarks on a journey in search of Spots. A brilliantly original story, filled with plenty of laughs and made all the better with stop motion. The voice actors were so perfectly chosen. 100% a Wes Anderson movie, what else do I have to say to sell it to you? It's quirky, funny, not to be missed and highly recommended.
