Let me be honest with you: I think this movie sucks. I caught a free screening last night and damn am I glad it was free. I would have been pissed if I payed to see it.
The story follows three wealthy, eccentric white American brothers as they travel to India in hopes of a “spiritual” journey. If the spiritual journey thing wasn’t trite enough for you, I promise it gets worse. All they end up doing is going on a self-indulgent rampage that reaffirms their insecure, awkward, and unattractive personalities.
The Indian characters mostly merge together in a sort of tasteless way. There’s a pervasive feeling of disrespect for India, its culture, and its people that’s often accompanied by Wes Anderson’s weak attempts to show the grandeur of the country as “strange and foreign.” The whole thing feels ignorant. Hopefully I can get Justique post her thoughts as well. She had some interesting things to say.
