Well, the first thing I thought after seeing this movie is that it literally reeked of Wes Anderson - and I don't mean that in a bad way. But seriously, you could see it a mile off. Anyway, it was very fascinating, and enjoyable, and ever so slightly thought-provoking, and, well, good. Give it a try, especially if you're in the mood for something quirky.

All of director Wes Anderson's films deal with heavy subject matter, though they are seen frequently through a prism of nonchalance, forced indifference, or in subtle mockery. While concerning itself in part with India's supposed abilities at self realization, Anderson's film borders on the latter, an at times comical perspective on the country that rides a very thin line between 'cute' and 'self absorbed.' The characters are hardly likeable, as per usual. An estranged mother and three disillusioned brothers searching for something bigger than themselves in the midst of something even bigger than that concludes the necessary family drama. A few Kinks songs and a hyperbolic concept of atmosphere, but of course. The formulaic nature of his films becomes all to obvious. And yet, everything looks so pretty it's hard to stay irritated. A few saving scenes with lazy wit, a climax worthy of a far more serious director, and a nice soundtrack. A film for early afternoon.

As an admitted fan of director Wes Anderson, "Darjeeling" proved to be one of his strongest films to date. From "Bottle Rocket" through "Life Aquatic" one is able to see the development of the auteur as he tightens up his stylistic concerns. Personally, although I kept wondering if Adrien Brody was simply a stand-in for Luke Wilson, I found a tight marriage with the trilogy of writers: Anderson, Schwartzman "also plays brother Jack Witman", and Roman Coppola. The credit also needs to go to Robert Yeoman, DP, that has directed the imagery that defines an Anderson film from sketches to placing the viewer into the scene. Anderson and Co. perfectly wove the narrative, visuals and music to flow effortlessly with near perfection. The nuances of Anderson's vision becomes more pronounced, although one could easily argue that some scenes become too Anderson-y. I look forward to keeping up with "The Fantastic Mr. Fox" set for a 2009 release. I just hope Anderson does not over use style to become the cliche.
