“Wes Anderson has managed to build yet another dazzler, a shrine to his own ambition and craft.”
—Amy Nicholson, LA Times
“As with all of Wes Anderson’s films, the design of THE PHOENICIAN SCHEME is jubilantly exquisite. Anderson’s aesthetic is one of the miracles and mysteries of the modern cinema, and THE PHOENICIAN SCHEME is filled with some of the most eye-catching baubles and gizmos of his career.”
—Richard Brody, The New Yorker
