Darjeeling Somewhat Limited

I admit I'm a fan of Wes Anderson films. I can count Rushmore and Royal Tennenbaums as proud additions to my DVD collection, and the only reason I don't have Life Aquatic is that I have bouts of laziness. That and I put off seeing it until recently. Bad Matt, bad indeed.So, instead of waiting around for a year to see The Darjeeling Limited, I rented it the other night. Unfortunately, the film came off disjointed and a little flat for me. Rotten Tomatoes gives it a mediocre 67% rating, but the fascinating thing about the reviews is that they are very polarized. You either love it (for some reason I can't fathom) or think it turned up the suck. I fall into the latte category. Sorry, Wes.
