Wes Anderson's latest film is a dysfunctional family railroad movie starring Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody and Jason Schwartzmann as three brothers who try to get their lives and their relationship back on track by going on a train journey through the Indian countryside, a year after their father's funeral.
There's plenty of Anderson's meticulously colour-co-ordinated quirkiness, if that's your cup of tea, but 'The Darjeeling Limited' also has its more straightforward pleasures, including some terrific knockabout comedy and characters with heart and soul. India looks fantastic, too.
