The best way of describing The Grand Budapest Hotel is an art piece; all thanks to the film's stunning visuals due to the auteur, Wes Anderson.
The entire film is so mesmerising due to its unique and artful framing, be its use of: wide shots which are often accompanied with great puppetry work adding so much charm; symmetry being utilised to make many shots looks like a painting; and or the change of aspect ratio between decades which, in combination with the use of dull and bright colours, makes it easily distinguishable and engaging to watch.
The writing was also exceptional, balancing its witty comedy while still maintaining some of it's dark undertones. All the main and side characters had great personalities with all their respective actors giving their full efforts. Ralph Fiennes absolutely killed his role giving a lot likability presenting very memorable lines with an equally memorable performance.
The runtime is justified with every scene always serving a purpose and in combination with it's fast paced dialogue keeps its pacing sharp, keeping me on my toes until its end.
