Summary: Wes Anderson's soulful debut
Review: Low budget and modest compared to Rushmore and Royal Tenenbaums, BOTTLE ROCKET has soul and smarts to spare, and is a great counterbalance to the rash of Tatantino-spawned mid-90's "gangster" tripe film we have all learned to hate.

Summary: kaboom
Review: bottle rocket is the title of wes andersons first feature film starring luke & owen wilson. it is a triumph in the median of film. the modern comedy is elevated out of bathroom humor and slapstick involving the penis with andersons subtle and quirkish humor. both luke and owen wilson give excellent freshman performances. james caan also gives a good performance as a lowball crime king pin. andersons style is defined, fresh, and shows great promise in a world of full of cookie cutter
hollywood [stuff]. this is a must have for anybody who truly enjoys not only watching a movie, but also appreciates originality.

Summary: Very Seinfeld like
Review: This basically is "A movie about nothing", way out of the mainstream, but is effective nonetheless. We have 2 ordinary guys (Owen & Luke Wilson) who are drifting through life with no purpose or direction. They don't know who or where they will end up with next. Then when Luke Wilson's character suddenly falls in love, he has something to live for. But he can't turn his back away from a life of crime and leave his buddies hanging. Will he be able to pull off one more heist and settle down? The ending is so hysterical, imagine the cast of Seinfeld trying to pull a heist, and you will see how fun this will be.

Summary: Dialogue
Review: This my friends is the best movie out there!! When I 1st saw it I knew that Wes Anderson was the director to watch, and I was proven to be right after seeing Rushmore and The Royal Tenebaums. The dialogue (specialy by Owen Wilson's character, Dignan) is worth it all. I infact have a tape of the audio of the movie I listen to frequently. It's so smart and hillarious at the same time. It's hard to believe that this is Wes Anderson's 1st effort as well as all the Wilson brothers. Good dialogue, good acting, great story and loud laughs, they all come toghether in this movie. I recomend this movie to anyone I talk to about movies. I love it and can't get enough of it. My friends expect me to quote it at least a few times a week. Even without any extras on the DVD, the fact that it contains this movie makes it the best DVD out there. In short. Buy it and watch it!

Review: If you liked American Pie, don't ever come near this film. That's all I'm going to say.

Summary: Luke and Owen Wilson at Their Best
Review: This is a very dry comedy where nothing in the world of crime ever seems to go right no matter how prepared you are. Owen Wilson's character is by far the funniest thing in this movie. The situations are all pretty hilarious I must say. This film sort of reminded me of Safe Men, but not as funny. I would guess on repeat viewings that this movie becomes funnier and funnier. Definitely worth checking out though....... especially if you liked Luke and Owen in The Royal Tenenbaums.

Summary: Birth of A Briliant Movie Maker!
Review: Possibly Wes Anderson's funniest movie. Its characters were flimsy fluts trying to become big time with a lack of direction and mental capacity. They made me laugh and laugh again. They just weren't clued in to the same channel that everyone else was watching. And there lies the brilliants behind Anderson's movies. He takes a character and gives him a gung-ho attitude about wierd and trivial things-and everyone else takes these characters seriously. It is unique. The colors of this movie shine, the jokes punctuate and the acting was off the wall. I recommened this movie to anyone who is searching for a new type of humor developed from some very funny men.

Summary: Dignan is classic
Review: Bottle Rocket has to be the best movies I have ever seen. Every aspect of each scene seems so basic, but every time you watch it you see how much genius goes in to every line. Wes Anderson and Owen Wilson are the two best writers in the nation right now. People say that movies like Scarface or Caddyshack have the best lines, but after seeing Bottle Rocket, I think this is the king of great lines. "Bob-Watch the road." "On the run from Jonny Law-Ain't no trip to Cleveland" "Look at his guy Clay-He look's like a big banana!" Buy this movie Now!!

Summary: And my name's Dignan man......So What?
Review: This movie is a suberb first effort from the writing/filmaking duo of Wes Anderson and Owen Wilson. It is not their best work, that title would go to Rushmore, although it is a great film in its own rite. Bottle Rocket is what indie films are all about: low budgets, a paucity of major stars, and the most fun you can have for [the money]. This movie deserves strong cult status. Crazy sub-culture elitists might use this movie as a litmus test to see if you are worth talking to. "My Name's Dignan Man....So What?" It just doesn't get much better than this. A must see for any fan of indie films. Don't miss it.
