Review: 'Rushmore,' 'Tenenbaums,' 'Darjeeling'

The best way to describe “The Darjeeling Limited” is to say that it is a typical Wes Anderson show.

The director who gave us “Rushmore,” “The Royal Tenenbaums” and “The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou” is known for his quirky, personal pieces that defy easy categorization. They are distinguished by satiric tone, weird deadpan characters in close relationship, antic exploits, abrupt shifts into tragedy and the presence of Bill Murray. They are an acquired taste. But the detail in his films is always wildly original, especially their fantastically involving modern soundtracks.
