In director Wes Anderson's The Darjeeling Limited, three American brothers who have not spoken to each other in a year set off on a train voyage across India with a plan to find themselves and bond with each other - to become brothers again like they used to be. Their spiritual quest, however, veers rapidly off course (due to events involving over the counter pain killers, Indian cough syrup, and pepper spray), and they eventually find themselves stranded alone in the middle of the desert with eleven suitcases, a printer and a laminating machine, at this moment, a new, unplanned journey suddenly begins. Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, and Jason Schwartzman star in this film about their adventure and their friendship.

Darjeeling Limited review by Daryll Nesmejanow
Fantastically captures the spirit of India with a heartwarming tale.

This is one film which you will think,
"Yeah that was alright."
Yet the more you think about it, the more you'll love it. I think you'll want to watch it again and again.
It beautifully captures India-perfectly.
A heartwarming tale of family relationships which everyone can relate to. It pulls no punches. I'm sure everyone can identify characters in their own families.
At the end of the day, it's the story that counts-not all the multi-million special effects and this story is fantastic.
If you have been to India the film will given more depth as you'll identify with the exceptional way it is captured.
Superb.

Darjeeling Limited review by Jean Browne
This one lost me early on!

A bizarre small film, featuring one of the protagonists, preceded the main event - was it supposed to be clever, amusing or just scene setting?
The film was just trying too hard to be quirky, different and implausible to be funny. Owen Wilson seemed thoroughly uncomfortable [and I don't just mean the bandages]- I had the feeling he didn't get it either!

Darjeeling Limited review by Shatner's Bassoon
Another disappointment.
(0) of (0) members found this review helpful.
I'm a fan of Wes Anderson's early films like 'Bottle Rocket', 'Rushmore' and 'The Royal Tenenbaums' but this is yet another disappointing effort. It sticks the Anderson's well worn formula of quirky characters in quirky situations speaking quirky dialogue, but the entire film lacks any kind of spark. If you're a die hard fan of Wes Anderson it's worth a rental otherwise I would give it a miss.
