Hilarious, touching and totally original comedy about a dysfunctional family's sudden, unexpected reunion. The Royal Tenenbaums tells the story of Royal Tenebaum (Gene Hackman) and his wife Etheline (Angelica Huston) who had three child prodigies before they separated - Chas (Ben Stiller), a real estate trader in his early teens - Ritchie (Luke Wilson), a junior champion tennis player, and Margot (Gwyneth Paltrow), who received a $50,000 grant for her ninth grade play. 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 review by AG
Unique, quirky, memorable

Either you like Wes Anderson movies (this, The Life Aquatic, Darjeeling Ltd etc), or you don't. In my opinion his movies have such a unique voice and sense of humour - kind of funny but tinged with strangeness and sorrow - that you need to be in the mood for them, and the Tenenbaums is no exception. However, once you've been introduced to the Tenenbaums - surely the poster family for all brilliant but deeply dysfunctional households - it is most unlikely that you will ever forget them. And the style of the characters surely has potential to spawn cult followings for years to come. Give it a go when you're feeling a little weird.
