Review of Isle of Dogs (2018) by Benskylerhill — 08 Apr 2018
This is more of what we have come to expect from Wes Anderson: a whimsical tale of friendship in unlikely places set in a cute dollhouse world with a plethora of sharp, unique humor. As with Wes Anderson's last stop-motion film, Fantastic Mr. Fox, the star of the show is the beautiful, near-flawless animation. It is, in a phrase, awe-inducing. The plot is muddied a bit with obscurity as to the motives of the antagonists, and it is unclear as to whether Anderson is applying social commentary to his story or not (If he is, it is difficult to decipher and doesn't quite come through. The script, as is typical of Anderson's films, if witty and amusing from start to finish. The chuckles never cease. Though it cannot help but leave some questions unanswered, this charming piece of art is a must-see for fans of unique cinema.
Story: 6.
Acting: 7.5.
Script: 8.
