Fantastically captures the spirit of India with a heartwarming tale. - The Darjeeling Limited review by CP Customer

Spoiler Alert
10/03/2008

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.

This one lost me early on! - The Darjeeling Limited review by CP Customer

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!

Another disappointment. - The Darjeeling Limited review by CP Customer

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.
