Review of The Darjeeling Limited (2007) by Jon K — 17 Nov 2010
Cast: Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, Jason Schwartzman, Anjelica Huston, Natalie Portman, Roman Coppola, Camilla Rutherford, Amara Karan.
Director: Wes Anderson.
Summary: In the wake of their father's death, three brothers (Adrien Brody, Owen Wilson and Jason Schwartzman) embark on a steam-engine journey across India aboard the Darjeeling Limited and attempt to reconnect after years of physical and emotional distance. The trip also opens up old wounds and proves that the base instincts of sibling rivalry can never be completely erased.
My Thoughts: "I honestly didn't think I would like this movie, but I enjoyed it thoroughly. Wes Anderson doing what he does best, directing quirky, odd, and funny family drama's. The three leads are great in this and convincing as brothers. The scenery of India is beautiful. The story is interesting and relatable in the sense as we get older, and lose touch with our siblings, you want to reconnect with each other. Unfortunately in this story it took something tragic to make that happen. It's a funny film, but it's also heartfelt and touching at times. Definitely a film worth seeing.".
