Asteroid City

"It is every bit as arch as his best work, while still managing to tug hard on the heartstrings."
★★★★★ Geoffrey Macnab, Independant (UK)

"Asteroid City’s eccentricity, its elegance, its gaiety, and its sheer profusion of detail within the tableau frame make it such a pleasure. So, too, does its dapper styling of classic American pop culture."
★★★★ Peter Bradshaw, Guardian

"Wes Anderson’s ’50s quarantine tale plays like the American auteur’s whimsical, surrealist answer to The Twilight Zone relocated to the dusty desert of the old West."
★★★★ Philip De Semlyen, Time Out

"Anderson’s fondest, most familiar themes return here: family, fatherhood, grief, love."
★★★★ John Nugent, Empire Magazine

"Is the director referring to the importance of forgetting your cynicism and surrendering to the whimsy? If so, where do I sign?"
★★★★ Ed Potton, Times (uk)

"Though it seems as light as a soufflé, this is more substantial fare than Anderson has been dishing out recently. It merits second, and possibly third, helpings."
★★★★ Jo-Ann Titmarsh, London Evening Standard

"Asteroid City reminds you that Anderson remains what he’s always been, despite what the AI bros might have you believe: completely inimitable."
★★★★ Robbie Collin, Daily Telegraph (uk)
