| Wes Anderson in in fact my hero. | 2010-07-31 | 5 / 5 |
| There are some films that you either love or hate, and this is one of them. Full of dry humor, imagination, and complex and sometimes unlikable characters it makes me warm inside every time i watch it. In agreement with another reviewer, its definitely a film that you should see more then once. Jason Schwartzman is insane as usual but pefect for his role. Its not your straightup, typical comedy or romance... really it'd just be easier to say "Hey.. its a Wes Anderson film: be prepared to not really understand it".

| The Genius that is Rushmore. | 2010-03-22 | 5 / 5 |
| | Rushmore is comedic genius. A precocious young man falls for a beautiful teacher at his private boarding school. The young man is that of Max Fisher a complex romanticist. He is a play write a member of the fencing team, an avid fighter for Latin club, the idea behind the baseball diamond aquarium. He is perhaps the greatest student that has ever attended Rushmore if only in his own mind. The school administration unable to take anymore of Max's over the top behavior expell him. Bill Murray the middle aged millionaire nihilist next-door,consequently falls in love with the same said teacher and has an affair with her much to Max's horror. That can mean only one thing, war. Hilarity ensues while the two dream up ever more dastardly deeds to spring on each other. Max's world falls apart and he becomes a shell of his former self. Finally Max and Bill Murray's character make amends While at his new school he discovers a new friend and a new idea for his biggest best play ever. If you enjoy a study in life ,the human condition and quirky personality types and intelligent humor you will love this film. I know I do. |
| grades aren't everything | 2010-01-11 | 4 / 5 |
| This movie has something for everyone.
The boy playwright has his adventures in the real world.
He has a mental age far in advance of his physical age,
so that he is drawn to an older woman,
a teacher. There begins his downfall
and regeneration as an honest man.
Some of the comedy is very well done.
There is an understated effect to the young genius
who can move mountains when he gets his act right. |
| Rushmore is the best movie of that long ago decade known as the 1990s. I love the overall style of this movie, a style that has since become the standard for Wes Anderson movies.
The visual style is brilliant: deliberate tracking shots, centered wide angle shots.
The musical style: classic pop/rock music from the 1960s and 1970s.
The acting style: quirky and understated.
I have watched Rushmore many times and am never bored. Rushmore is like its main characters, Max Fisher and Herman Blume, in that it is equal parts genius, melancholy, lonely, and, ultimately, sweet.

| What a surprize | 2009-11-26 | 4 / 5 |
| I don't have good writing skills,I hate it that I didn't pay much attention to it
in school.Fortunately,I don't need it in the field of hospital work,haha,won't say what kind.
But..here is what I want to say.
I loved this movie !! The story was so original and quirky.
I was hooked right away,#1 I love Jason Schwartzman !
And to have a twofer in one movie..Bill Murray !!
The story was delightful,the music was superb,cast superb.
There was one tiny spot where it lagged just for a minute.
Again,this is a keeper. |
