The French Dispatch (2021): ⭐️⭐️⭐️: When it works, it works really well; Anderson’s eye for shots and quirky humor generally works very well for me. However, as is often the case with any anthology, some entries work better than others, and the ones that work the best aren’t always the ones that get the most time spent on them. The end result is enjoyable overall, but not as consistently so as some of Anderson’s other films.
