Review: Moonrise Kingdom

Review: <em>Moonrise Kingdom</em>

Moonrise Kingdom is a quintessential Wes Anderson movie. The look and feel of the movie is textbook to his style. Tracking shots and quirky music set the scene for a wonderfully enjoyable film set in 1965. Much like Life Aquatic we are thrown into the imagination of Anderson with his story of two kids who fall in love with each other and go to the end of the island for each other.

Moonrise Kingdom Trailer

Wes Anderson’s latest film, Moonrise Kingdom now has a trailer. I am huge fan of The Royal Tennenbaums and Rushmore. This looks to be a pretty classically shot Wes Anderson film. I see that Anderson has once again employed his standard group of actors: Jason Schwartzman and Bill Murray, which is never a bad thing. The additions of Edward Norton, Tilda Swinton, and Bruce Willis only gets me to the theater that much faster. Are you a Wes Anderson fan? What’s your favorite? Check out the trailer after the jump.
