I liked it. It was very much his style, almost absurdly so. Too many characters made the whole movie feel like an introduction, I was surprised when it ended because it felt like it was just getting into it. The meta stuff was fun, but I see how others could see it as a bit self-indulgent.
I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who hasn’t seen or doesn’t like Wes Anderson. Its not his best work, but it’s still a great movie. I’ll rewatch it.

Yes! Wife and I described it as, “If Wes Anderson did Wes Anderson.” It was definitely the most Wes Andersony film to date, in my opinion.
