Can anyone tell me if the movie 'The Royal Tenenbaums' is any good?,. i didn't watch it when it was released because the trailers just didn't do it for me. Recently i have been getting into the whole Stiller / Wilson combo and am going to give it a try. Please tell me if it is a no no! Thanks.
It's worth watching just to see Ben Stillers sons (Ari and Uzi). I liked the movie a lot...it was hilarious.
What other movies is the humor a good comparison to? say.. the big lebowski? dogeball? zoolander.... You people did like zoolander didn't you!?
Personally, I liked The Royal Tenenbaums. I've found that people either love the movie or they hate it. It's a different type of comedy than Dodgeball or Zoolander. The humor is a little more subtle but I still found the movie funny and entertaining.
saw it in the movie theater when it came out...i was one of only few people laughing, and at some points i could only hear my own laugh. but then again, my sense of humor is unlike most people's. saw it several times on cable...very funny movie with subtle humor
I tried watching it twice (im a huge fan of both main actors) and couldn't get past 20 minutes without wanting to shoot myself. My good friend on the other hand absolutely loves it...

Why oh why did i ever consider watching this awful piece of cinema excrement! Dreadful dreadful film. The bit with the depressed brother getting frisky with razor blades was just uncalled for!, this film had no direction at all - and it wasn't even funny. If anyone else hasn't decided whether to watch this or not - then don't! Save yourself! If you have unadvertantly purchased this but not watched it yet, i would suggest fashioning some kind of detonating device from whatevers lying around and send that ugly movie back where it belongs. Zoolander on the other hand kicks ass!
Have you gotten to any of the scenes where the portugese guy sings David Bowie covers? I would say that Tenenbaums and Life Aquatic are about the same type of humor, but Aquatic being just a bit more strange.
