slow west

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3205376

slow west was kind of like what would happen if wes anderson did westerns, which i guess is a thing he will probably get around to one of these days.  also, if you are wondering whether i am feeling pretentious today, the answer is yes.  obviously.  but it is a kind of charming pretentious, like a wes anderson movie.

so anywho.  was it good?  well, maybe?  do you like wes anderson movies?  i tend to come away from them feeling just a little charmed, but bored, and i got that same thing out of slow west.  even the funny parts were charming+boring, which was quite frankly weird.  also like a wes anderson movie, the characters were mostly caricatures with arcs drawn by a child in crayon and the plot followed a straight, if not totally obvious, line to the conclusion.  so i guess what i am saying here is that this was more or less a wes anderson ripoff.  even the name, right?

slow west gets two royal aquatic moonrise hotel limiteds.
