At first Asteroid City got my attention with it's title. But after watching the movie I am amazed and wondering why are movies like this not more successful.

You really have to like Wes Anderson style. It's not for everyone. It's a niche taste to be honest. A few love Anderson peculiar movie style, but many despise it. I'm in the former group.

I always go into a Wes Anderson film expecting it to be good, and it ends up being even better than that.

I immediately put his movies on the first place of my must watch list.

I feel like Wes Anderson films have been quite successful for a while. Maybe it didn't get the hype Barbenheimer got this go around, but Grand Budapest hotel won like 4 Oscars.
