Movie Review-The Royal Tenenbaums

Title-"The Royal Tenenbaums"

Rating-R

Director-Wes Anderson

Actors-Gene Hackman, Angelica Huston, Ben Stiller, Gwyneth Paltrow, Luke Wilson

Genre-Comedy/Drama

Year-2001






"The Royal Tenenbaums" is a great movie and one of my favorites of 2001. It is about a very eccentric family in New York City. The children in the family, Chas, Margot, and Ritchie, were all prodigies and were very sucessful, until their parents, Royal (Gene Hackman) and Etheline (Angelica Huston) separated. As adults, Chas (Ben Stiller), Margot (Gwyneth Paltrow), and Ritchie (Luke Wilson) have been estranged from their father, and are shocked when Royal suddenly wants contact with them again. I don't want to give anything else away about this movie. It has an imaginative story and terrific acting, especially by Gene Hackman, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Luke Wilson. I really recommend watching "The Royal Tenenbaums".
