PRO REVIEWS
----------------------------------------
"As in 'Fantastic Mr. Fox', Anderson is able to express sincere personal connection and compatibility while employing a highly artificial style" (Todd McCarthy: The Hollywood Reporter) ----------------------------------------
"'Moonrise Kingdom' represents a sort of non-magical Neverland -- that momentous instant when the world can seem so small and a naive crush can feel all-consuming" (Peter Debruge: Variety) ----------------------------------------
"The director's best film since 1998's Rushmore, it has none of the self-conscious smugness of The Life Aquatic or the empty eccentricity of The Royal Tenenbaums (...) Rating: ***1/2 (out of four)"
(Claudia Puig: USA Today) ----------------------------------------
"The hilarious and heartfelt 'Moonrise' Kingdom is a consistent pleasure. By evoking the joys and terrors of childhood, it reminds us how to be alive (...) Rating: ***1/2 (out of four)"
(Peter Travers: Rolling Stone) ----------------------------------------
"Wes Anderson returns with 'Moonrise Kingdom', his most stylized diorama yet (...) True Andersonites will likely float away in a state of nirvana"
(David Edelstein: New York Magazine) ----------------------------------------
