Cannes-Ticker: 16. Maischwanenmeister, 16:32h
"Moonrise Kingdom" (Wes Anderson) ***½
[Wettbewerb]; dt. KS: 24.05.
"Three courses of dessert, smothered in Desplat. Appealing blush, witty accents, but, as ever, all love and no passion (C+)", schreibt Guy Lodge (In Contention). "Cannes eases itself in with the smooth, genteel, jocular MOONRISE KINGDOM, Wes Anderson at his most romantic and my fave of his", schreibt Nick James (Sight & Sound). "Balance between pre-adolescent ardor and adult disappointment a bit wobbly, but mostly delightful in RUSHMORE vein (75)", schreibt Mike D'Angelo (The A.V. Club). "60s fugitive teen romance. Clever, cartoony, cameo-heavy whimsy, helped out emotionally by Britten music", schreibt Geoff Andrew (Sight & Sound). "Although all the performances are mannered and sometimes doll-like, there is a fairytale charm about MOONRISE KINGDOM that could even earmark it as one of his best", schreibt Damon Wise (Empire). "MOONRISE KINGDOM is drowned in Rockwellian nostalgia, filmed through yellow cellophane, and very, very funny", schreibt Kate Muir (The Times). "It's so full of a joyous love for the medium and smart without being clever-clever. Its childishness, sense of innocence and eye for fun all make it a very easy film to love", schreibt Dave Calhoun (TimeOut Film). "On one level, this is THEY LIVE BY NIGHT with 12-year-olds", schreibt Todd McCarthy (THR). "Interesting, disturbing...interesting. Embeds. But the navel-gazing ultimately wears thin. Marinating in youth etc.", schreibt Sasha Stone (Awards Daily). "Whimsical, but also another beautiful Anderson film about grief. Critics saying 'more of the same' didn't see last shot", schreibt James Rocchi (MSN Movies). "A warm, heartfelt look at first love and community, MOONRISE KINGDOM is Anderson at his best", schreibt Drew McWeeny (HitFix). "MOONRISE KINGDOM was a great opener for Cannes 2012 - elegant, eccentric and charming", schreibt Peter Bradshaw (Guardian). "The enchanting sweetness of director Wes Anderson’s 2009 foray into animation, FANTASTIC MR. FOX, has been transplanted into his return to live-action filmmaking, MOONRISE KINGDOM, a delicate period love story whose slightness is mitigated by its deep feeling", schreibt Tim Grierson (Screen Daily). "The biggest coup here is that Anderson has finally managed to anchor his trademark whimsy with a sincere and heady romanticism", schreibt David Jenkins (Little White Lies). "Cutesy, quirky and resolutely inconsequential. Cannes opens with a whimper not a roar", schreibt Xan Brooks (Guardian). "Achieves a pitch-perfect rendition of Anderson's storytelling approach", schreibt Eric Kohn (indieWIRE). "KINGDOM was lovely -- like a childhood dream with more fastidious art direction", schreibt Boyd van Hoeij (Variety). "A parti-coloured, spun-sugar BADLANDS, choreographed just-so along a narrow parapet of cute (7/10)", schreibt Neil Young (THR). "Shot on Super 16mm, the visible grain giving the image a wonderfully tactile depth and life, MOONRISE KINGDOM is, in a lot of ways, the ur-Wes Anderson film", schreibt Karina Longworth (L.A. Weekly). "MOONRISE KINGDOM proves that FANTASTIC MR FOX was salubrious for Anderson, but he piles on too much stuff in latter half", schreibt Robert Koehler (Variety). "Da mag man einen Regisseur eigentlich überhaupt nicht, sitzt entsprechen kühl abwartend im Kino und plötzlich findet man etwas von ihm total super. Toll, schön, dass einem das noch passiert", schreibt Rüdiger Suchsland (Artechock). "So cheers for a Cannes director who has infused his technical mastery with radiant life. In the Museum of the World of Wes Anderson, the dolls are dancing", schreibt Richard Corliss (Time Magazine). "MOONRISE KINGDOM ist ein großartiger, enigmatischer Film, dessen programmatische Abkehr von jeder psychologischen Ausdeutung der Interpretation einiges abverlangt: bezwingend, betörend – und rätselhaft", schreibt Josef Lederle (Filmdienst). "Wo Andersons Manier zuletzt in THE DARJEELING LIMITED zum Manierismus erstarrte, findet er in MOONRISE KINGDOM wieder eine glückliche Balance", schreibt Christoph Huber (Die Presse). "Das ist ein ganz anderes, eigentlich schönes, anrührendes Amerikabild, was hier geträumt wird", sagt Katja Nicodemus (Zeit). "MOONRISE KINGDOM is refreshingly light and airy, an easy to watch melody of a movie", schreibt Eric Vespe (Aintitcool-News).
