"Absolutely loved this. Such a fascinating short film, and I especially loved how the dialogues sounded like one reading a storybook. Fantastic production design (easily this film’s MVP) along with performances (the entire cast is great with Benedict Cumberbatch, Dev Patel, Ralph Fiennes, and Ben Kingsley in particular standing out), score, and cinematography. Wes Anderson has been on truly something of a roll this year between this and ASTEROID CITY. Highly recommended."

"Loved the cinematography and the way it was narrated. It’s the film adaptation of a Roald Dahl’s short story collection and it follows the strange story of someone called Henry Sugar. He decides to learn the skill of concentration after reading about someone who masters meditation till he could see without needing his eyes. He then goes on a quest to use that skill in gambling. While I liked the visuals I felt there’s something missing and I don’t know what it’s. It was an enjoyable watch though. "
