The Royal Tenenbaums

2002-Comedy

A star studded cast of actors, and directed by the same guy that did 'Life Aquatic'.
My room mate (Allen) swears by this movie being the funniest film of all time. After years of constant badgering, I've Finally submitted and decided to check it out for myself.

Synopsis:
The Tenenbaums is a family of Geniuses. The eldest a whiz with money, the daughter imaginative and 'deep',and the youngest a sports star. The family is possibly the most dysfunctional family ever to grace the silver screen, with its Father, Mr. Royal Tenenbaum leading the insensitive hateful bunch. But once the status quo is possibly changing, can Royal cope with this and can the rest of the family unite and finally see eye to eye?

All-in-All:
Lets just say the i wont be questioning Allen Tomsovice movie choices for a while. This film amazed me and kept me wanting for more. The script, perfect, witty, and great development on the characters. The Directing: Top Notch. what can i say? each scene is filled with vibrant colors, perfectly timed yet subtle effects, and pacing made me forget how long this film truly is. Acting: Amazing. The actors owned the characters, as if they were made to play the parts. Its amazing that Comedies haven't yet taken a hint from this amazing film. This Film Evolved the Genre, and shows that Comedic films arn't just for morons waiting for the next T&A scene.

Riko's Review: A+
