I can understand why someone might not enjoy this film, but if you're an avid movie goer you'll understand why I'm ranking this so highly. First, beautiful cinematography. Every shot is carefully thought out. I love the shots through the bungalow windows and the way it frames the characters. The music is incredible. It's subtle but fun and really sets a tone. The acting is outstanding. Of course it has a stacked cast to back it up, but every character really leans in and owns it. The wit is great. I caught myself laughing at several points in the film. I loved when Carell's character came by and said "your kids are a little weird aren't they?" and all the parents nod and agree lol. Another great Wes Anderson.
