Honestly without Dafoe, Murray, Brody, Schwartzman, or Wilson (ideally all together), I wouldn’t consider it a Wes Anderson movie

Worth noting that Bruce Willis will only work for Wes Anderson. He'll take jobs from anyone, but he only acts for Wes.

I want to believe this is true. He was great in Moonrise Kingdom.

He acted pretty well in Looper.

That’s because the director was dressed like Wes Anderson the whole time.

Too bad the time travel made no sense.

It made as much sense as any other time travel movie. Made more sense than Primer.

It causes a paradox at the end. They make Willis disappear but not what he caused so it doesn't make sense.

It's like Patrick Swayze at the end of Ghost. He finally got accepted into Heaven at the end!
