2009's Top 10 Repeat Offenders in Wes Anderson with Jason Schwartzman and Owen Wilson

Posted by Eric Lavallee on Jan 05, 2010

#5. FANTASTIC MR.FOX

When it comes to voice casting for animated features you either cast by name, cast by voice characteristics or then you have something like Jason Schwartzman's take on an insecure son who is seeking the approbation of his father. Perhaps its the air of familiarity of Wes Anderson employing someone from his fold which works wonders (this is Schwartzman's fourth film with Anderson not including Hotel Chevalier) but with comedy its all about timing - and the filmmaker and actor don't often miss their marks. Ditto goes for Owen Wilson and his Cal Ripken-esque status in Anderson's filmography.

Review: The Kid With a Bike

Review: The Kid With a Bike

"Despite the one-dimensionality of its anti-patriarchal theme (appeasing the knee-jerk expectations of European film fest audiences), the Dardennes avoid cheapening the story with ideological smugness, achieving an emotional resonance without easy sentimentality."

Review: Wrong

"Encoded in the outlandish humor that pervades the film are bits of commentary on everyday life. The most overt is Dupieux's urging to appreciate the relationships around you, which is manifested in the dog kidnapping, but also in a subplot in which a woman from the pizzeria moves between men without even realizing they have changed. Another cultural critique is found in the rainy office, an instantly recognizable visual metaphor for how dreary a 9 to 5 job can be."
