613019, Really, really dug it.

Loved the performances of the kids (the boy in particular had his own kind of nerd swag that was dope), as well as what Bruce and Edward Norton gave us. It seemed like Bill Murray was just there, not that that's a big complaint but it seemed if you got rid of him you wouldn't be missing very much, other than the chance to see Bill shirtless carrying an ax.

The story held together pretty well, I was glad that the kids running away didn't take up the entire run time. Loved the unpredictability of how everything played out.

I thought it was very cute, innocent (even with the kids dancing in their drawls by the lake) and inventive. I think that after this and The Fantastic Mr. Fox, Wes Anderson is back on track...
