My Review: This film is one of my favorite films ever. TGBH was directed by one of my favorite director, Wes Anderson. Wes' work is amazing and the cinematography....OMG. The color palate, Wes knew what he was doing. 
TGBH cast was well picked....seriously. I know some people may get annoyed by Wes picking the same actors for his films. I personally think the actors fit perfectly for their characters. 
TGBH's storyline was interesting. The plot had the flow that the film needed. The cinematography............AMAZING. I LOVE Wes' trademarks in the film. The panning, color palate, actors, symmetry framing, and the plot flow.
