r96 s 'Bottle Rocket' felt like it was running on fumes for me, the conclusion is an improvement on what procedes but it doesn't quite do enough to salvage my feelings towards this Wes Anderson feature directorial debut. With that noted, I didn't explicitly dislike it either. Owen Wilson and Luke Wilson make their acting bows, quite interesting that the brothers don't actually portray brothers; kinda refreshing to see, actually. Robert Musgrave and James Caan are also involved. Owen is the standout in my opinion, though the main trio are on a similar-ish level. It coulda done with more laughs, but that's obviously a personal thing - no doubt many will find it funny, just not me; albeit with a few chuckles scattered in there. It also isn't the most Wes Anderson-y film, with his signature MO evidently not quite fully developed yet (as expected, tbf). Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/08/25 Full Review HITZ 4 Filme amador com um roteiro, atuações e desenvolvimento exótico e único. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/05/25 Full Review thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, a história é fraca, mas o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e mais relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/18/25 Full Review Michael V This was made long before Wes Anderson found his footing so the movie is uneven and uninteresting. I honestly turned it off halfway through, despite being a big fan of Wes Anderson's later work. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/13/25 Full Review Tyler G Bottle rocket, one of Wes anderson's earliest films, was a joy to watch. It was a constant thrill ride, and the acting was quite meaningful. Owen wilson delivered and you truly begin to get to know each character as the storyline progresses. Luke wilson evoked a lot of emotion as he navigated life after the hospital, and it was fun to see him disregard the plan over time. This entire film felt whimsical, and I was quite happy with it. Wes Anderson always delivers, and I'd recommend this to anyone. The film quality is grainy and feels reminiscent of 1996, which was different but welcomed. I felt like I was watching a movie from my childhood. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/05/24 Full Review Ryland C Honestly, it’s really hard to hate Bottle Rocket. It’s Wes Anderson’s very first movie and he nailed this start to his filmography. As the movie itself, it’s just a pretty fun heist movie. The cast was great, the comedy was excellent, and there’s a lot of great camera shots. So yeah! This movie is great, and a decent start to Wes Anderson’s film career.
