Bottle Rocket

Upon his release from a mental hospital following a nervous breakdown, the directionless Anthony joins his friend Dignan, who seems far less sane than the former. Dignan has hatched a harebrained scheme for an as-yet-unspecified crime spree that somehow involves his former boss, the (supposedly) legendary Mr. Henry.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Bottle Rocket from 1996 stars the Wilson brothers - Owen, Luke, and Andrew, with a script co-written by Owen and Wes Anderson. The film also stars James Caan.The story concerns a group of friends at loose ends who embark on a life of crime at the instigation of Dignan (Owen). Anthony (Luke) has just escaped from a voluntary mental hospital -- he could have walked out, but instead he slid to the ground on a sheet. Dignan (Owen) is the ringleader with a series of instructional notebooks; Bob (Robert Musgrave) has a car so he's the lookout and driver.They knock over a few stores and wind up at a motel where Anthony falls for a maid and feels it's been a life-changing experience. Then Bob's brother is arrested as a drug dealer, so he takes off in his car to help him, leaving the other two stranded. And so it goes.Very funny - Wes Anderson is great at this type of offbeat comedy. The comedy comes out of the characterizations rather than the lines. The best is toward the end when Owen takes charge of a big caper. Enjoy this.

Recently I watch Moonrise Kingdom and found it to be fantastic bit of cinema! I liked it so much that I decided to see where Wes Anderson was coming from. I watched this movie....and kept waiting for something to happen. And kept waiting, and waiting. At one point I was so sick of the movie just seemingly building up for something to happen in the plot that I was about to throw in the towel. If you do choose to watch I guess you can see if it happens about the same time. 42 min into this I had all of the "build up" I could take. But, I forced myself through it....hoping something great would come of it. I didn't. It is virtually plot less. Also, in Moonrise Kingdom some of the camera angles, panning, etc are...a bit edgy but really work well! This movie seems to be Wes Anderson's first time playing with a new toy and these are actually distracting instead of artful. Too bad. Not worth your time

Futureman is an angry older brother. Why does he harbor so much hate against Bob? Because he's the only one with a car. What the eff is this? It's a review. Bob has nothing to prove. He's willing to be a getaway driver, but don't ask him to cut his hair. Or Anthony. On the run from Johnny Law ain't no trip to Cleveland. The bandages on their noses during the robbery are the perfect distraction. Bring a bigger bag next time. This was just a practice. A warm up for the big league with Mr. Henry, a karate black belt trained by grand master Rowboat. Don't mess with them or you'll get water dumped on your head. Or worse—they will steal all your stuff while you're off with the Lawn Wranglers trying to rob a meat plant.

Anthony (Luke Wilson) is released from a mental institution and hooks up with his friend Dignan (Owen Wilson) who hatches a scheme to rob his former boss Mr Henry (James Caan). Anthony falls for motel maid Inez (Lumi Cavazos).This is the first big screen attempt for director Wes Anderson. It has flashes of his unique style already. It has the camera work, some quirks and the music. However the story is a rambling mess of aimless people. While the group of friends have some quirks, they're not weird enough to be funny. The Wilson brothers are showing their charismatic banter. It's a charming indie where everybody is trying their best and having a bit of fun.
