En dépeignant les aventures somme toute banales de lextraordinaire et loufoque famille Tenenbaum, Anderson livre avec une tendresse amusée une galerie de portraits hauts en couleurs. Dans cette tribu de génies dégénérés, tout se joue entre le père intrigant (Gene Hackman), la fille adoptée dépressive (Gwyneth Palthrow), laîné au bord de la crise de nerfs (Ben Stiller) et le benjamin trop calme pour être normal (Luke Wilson). Également à noter, la présence dun futur grand talent de la comédie américaine, Owen Wilson, qui co-signe aussi le scénario.
Sous la forme dun faux documentaire biographique, narré par Alec Baldwin, Anderson nous présente cette famille brillante mais complètement dysfonctionnelle, dans un univers aux couleurs acidulées, tout en faisant preuve dune extrême inventivité sur les plans formel et narratif. À la fois absurde et touchante, The Royal Tenenbaums est une farce très réussie où les petits garçons créent des souris dalmatiennes, où les grands possèdent un aigle nommé Mordecaï et où même Gwyneth Palthrow peut avoir lair de bien jouer. --Helen Faradji

The Royal Treatment,
By Meerschaum "end user" (Vancouver, B.C., Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Royal Tenenbaums, the (DVD)
If you thought that they stopped making good films after the 70's, this is a flick that will restore your faith in the movies.What starts as a pitch black comedy about a family of neurotic, failed child prodigies (Stiller, Paltrow and Luke Wilson) poisoned by the self-indulgence of their dissolute-but-still-loveable patriarch (Hackman) morphs effortlessly somewhere in the final reel into a touching paen to forgiveness, redemption and family without losing its offbeat edge at all. Anderson's bold use of well-composed head-on shots is dazzling at times. His and Owen Wilson's screenplay is as sharp and snappy as they get, creating a ensemble of quirky, memorable characters that give all of the actors something to sink their teeth into. All of the performances from the leads to the elevator attendants are top notch (especially Hackman and Luke Wilson, the latter's performance being something of a revelation), and the soundtrack makes a perfect counterpoint to what's going on onscreen. The DVD is a Criterion, so (as you've come to expect) it's excellent in quality with loads and loads of nifty features. I recently watched this disc back-to-back with Altman's delightful Gosford Park. And I know this might sound like heresy, but I actually think that Anderson handles his ensemble a little better even than Altman . . . and Altman still handles his ensembles damn well. High praise indeed.

A genuinely wonderful movie..,
By A Customer
This review is from: Royal Tenenbaums, the (DVD)
I usually prefer older movies, but this could possibly be my favorite movie of all time. The script it brilliant, it's hilarious and touching. There's sorrow in the humor that makes it seem very real. The movie is very observant of human nature, and very insightful. It's also accompanied by a wonderful soundtrack, that compliments the dialogue and camerawork beautifully.

DEEPAK PALLANA RETURNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Royal Tenenbaums, the (DVD)
Once again, Wes Anderson brings back Deepak Pallana (Pagoda in the film). He has appeared in every Anderson film, especially as Kumar in Bottle Rocket. My friend and I still wonder why this quirky guy ends up in all of Anderson's movies, but I love every minute of it. He is hilarious!!!! Pagoda yelling "You son of a beeech" and stabbing Royal Tenenbaum is so unexpected and hilarious, I almost fell out of my seat. Tenenbaum's reaction is almost as funny!!!! JUST SEE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!
