The Royal Tenenbaums (2001)
Royal Tenenbaum and his wife Etheline had three children and then they separated. All three children are extraordinary --- all geniuses. Virtually all memory of the brilliance of the young Tenenbaums was subsequently erased by two decades of betrayal, failure, and disaster. Most of this was generally considered to be their father's fault. "The Royal Tenenbaums" is the story of the family's sudden, unexpected reunion one recent winter.

An absolute waste of money
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
Short and Simple Review by WubsTheFadgerFirst off, Wes Anderson has created another whimsical, colorful, and plain out weird film once again. The story is told fluently and gracefully introduces us to the colorful characters and their personalities. The story is very funny and at time extremely touching.The acting is great. Gene Hackman, Anjelica Huston, Ben Stiller, Gwyneth Paltrow, Luke Wilson, Owen Wilson, Bill Murray, Danny Glover, Seymour Cassel, Kumar Pallana, and Alec Baldwin all perform very well.The pacing is a little slow in the middle but overall, it is consistently fast. The runtime is a little overlong.Pros: Whimsical, funny, and touching story, great acting, and a great endingCons: Some slow pacing and an overlong runtimeOverall Rating: 8.2
As every Wes Andersons films, this film is wonderful. I like his style of film making. The bright colors of the film makes you calm and just enjoy the movie. The clothes of characters are such original and stylish.The main character is dad of the big family who made mistakes towards his every family member and he guesses it in his late life and tries to put everything right beck together. The story of the film is very interesting it has a quite enough comedy and drama in it and ending with enough drama and without stretched scenes.
This movie sucks. I don't need to say more, but there is a minimum of 5 lines. I probably won't be able to save you your viewing time due to this movie came out like 15 years ago, but if you haven't seen it yet and had been thinking about watching it, save yourself the 2 hours and re-watch Die Hard again. It may not be a new viewing experience, but at least you'll actually be entertained and you won't have wasted 2 hours of your precious time, you can't get back.
A film so, so, so, bad, soulless, without charm, that promises you many things to start, and then it is as if you discard all of the above and there remains an empty, meaningless film and where there are only purely senseless situations with Characters so soulless and not funny. It's cancer, you could only save the aesthetics they gave you, and the scenarios, but the script does not exist, nor an outcome, no coherence. I finished seeing it because I hoped something would happen in it, and no.
