Is it possible that I forgot to post about this? I saw it a few weeks ago, but I guess I've been so busy that it just slipped my mind.
Anyway, Moonrise Kingdom is the new Wes Anderson movie, very much in the vein of The Royal Tenenbaums. He uses the same quirky cinematography in both film, colors that at once seem dull and bright, and actors who take their otherwise comedic roles and scenes very seriously. Both movies would be considered comedies, if only they had been played for laughs.
The story of Moonrise Kingdom is simple: two kids decide to run away together, and people go searching for them. Serious hilarity ensues.
Bottom line: oddly entertaining.
