Review of The Royal Tenenbaums (2001) by Mark Caro for Chicago Tribune — 25 Nov 2005
More flat-out funny than "Rushmore," but in neither film is the humor joke-based. What you're laughing at is the behavior of characters who are so fixed in their idiosyncratic worldviews that they can't help but careen into each other like out-of-control bumper cars.
