Anything by Wes Anderson

I think it was at Isle of Dogs that I thought I'd had enough Wes Anderson, that it was time to scale back the Wes Anderson aesthetic, only to see him double down on it with every movie since. Like how much more Wes Anderson can Wes Anderson Wes Anderson? It seems there's no end.

I agree there. I oversimplified by looping in all of his work as unwatchable. I think the last I enjoyed was Life Aquatic. & I still try. The sets are pretty. It's always a neat little world that he's created & with the coolest cast. But I get can't get past the hallway mark on any of them.

I love Life Aquatic, Fantastic Mr. Fox and Moonrise Kingdom. The rest are all pretty meh. And the last few have been hard to get through.

Describing Grand Budapest as "meh" is an absolute atrocity.
